Mahesh Babu has wide range of fans in Tamil Nadu as he relates himself very close with Chennai. Almost all the actor's films have done a remarkable business at TN Box Office. Last time, we saw him in the film was 'Athidi' in 2007 and nearly after long gap of 3 years, we happen to watch his film.

'Khaleja' opens bigger in many theatres today. For the first time, tickets for all the shows have been sold out within fraction of moments. EGA Cinemas usually doesn't get much crowd for the Hindi films on the first day. However, this film is sure to go for house-packed shows for the next three days.

Anushka stars opposite Mahesh Babu in female lead and Prakash Raj plays negative role. Mani Sharma has scored music and Bollywood's most happening Sunil Patel (Hum Tum, Bachna Ae Haseeno) has handled cinematography. National award winner Sreekar Prasad has edited the shots.
