"This is my first time speaking to the media about 'Guard.' We’ve put immense effort into this project, and I believe success in the industry comes with media support. If you liked our teaser, we request your encouragement. Our director and team, mostly based in Australia, have given their all. Special mention to Rajesh for his exceptional editing and Bina Garu for outstanding sound design and mixing. Parthu designed stunning posters, and Sandeep Garu worked relentlessly behind the scenes. Pranay’s music, especially the love songs, has been widely appreciated, and Siddharth’s gripping background score adds another layer to the film.  

Jaga Peddi, our director, has taught me a lot, and thanks to him, no one will feel like a newcomer in this film. Mimi Leanord, Shilpa Balakrishna, and the entire team have delivered phenomenal performances. We truly need support for small films like ours, and we hope the audience will embrace ‘Guard’ on February 28.”

The sound mixing was done in our studio, and I sincerely thank Anasuya Madam for trusting me with this project. Viraj’s passion for acting is inspiring, and I believe this film will leave a strong impression."  

Background score composer Siddharth Sadasivuni added:  

"Thrillers rely heavily on background music, and we’ve crafted a score that keeps the audience on the edge of their seats.
