Telugu film industry is ready for a high-voltage day at the box office on September 5, as four films — three direct Telugu releases and one dubbed Tamil one — are poised to arrive in theaters on the same day. With no indication of delays, film lovers are set for a cinematic treat while producers prepare for a high-octane box office battle.
One of the most anticipated releases is Ghaati, starring Anushka Shetty and directed by Krish Jagarlamudi. The film has faced multiple delays, primarily due to the extensive VFX work. Originally planned for a summer release, the team has now finalized September 5 as the new release date. With strong names attached and high expectations riding on it, Ghaati is set to make a grand entry.
Following the blockbuster success of HanuMan, young hero Teja Sajja is back with his next film, Mirai. Produced by People Media Factory on a lavish scale, the film has already grabbed attention with its visually appealing teaser. Actor Manchu Manoj plays a powerful antagonist in this high-concept film. Interestingly, the film’s OTT partner has also backed the theatrical release and reportedly insisted on the September 5 date, adding more weight to its arrival.
The highly anticipated THE Girlfriend, made under the Geetha Arts brand name, stars national crush Rashmika Mandanna in the central role. The movie is poised to give a new spin on love and is also aiming for a September 5th release. With a young theme and a mass face leading the venture, Girlfriend is worth waiting for.
Adding to the list is the dubbed version Madharasi, featuring Tamil star Sivakarthikeyan. The movie, which had a good run in Tamil Nadu, is now targeting Telugu territory. Having a massive fan following in both states, the producers are hopeful of its success.
