The highly anticipated Tollywood film The Paradise has been making headlines after a leaked glimpse sent shockwaves through audiences, offering a striking preview of what director Srikanth Odela is crafting with Nani. The buzz surrounding the film has grown significantly, raising expectations among fans. Despite the soaring hype, the makers have postponed the film’s release to August 21, 2026.
Amid this, fresh buzz suggests that the film’s second single is likely to be released on May 10, 2026. However, the team has yet to officially announce further details regarding the song and its launch. Expectations for this track are quite high, especially after the massive success of Aaya Sher, which crossed 100 million views.
The film features a strong supporting cast including Kayadu Lohar, Mohan Babu, Sonali Kulkarni, Babu Mohan, Tanikella Bharani, and Sampoornesh Babu in key roles. Produced by SLV Cinemas, this pan Indian film features music composed by Anirudh Ravichander.
There have been many rumors circulating about Megastar Chiranjeevi’s 158th film (Mega 158), directed by Bobby. The project was expected to begin shooting earlier, but it faced delays due to a few issues. Now, the director himself has shared an exciting update for fans.
Taking to social media, he revealed that the look test with Chiranjeevi has been completed, and the final look has been locked. He also posted a monochrome picture from the session. Bobby confirmed that the film will go on floors very soon, putting an end to all the ongoing speculation.
The film will be produced by KVN Productions on a grand scale. Nimish Ravi has been roped in as the cinematographer, while Thaman will compose the music. More details about the cast and storyline are expected to be revealed during the official launch.

Exactly a year ago, a Telugu movie titled Sodhara was released. Starring Sampoornesh Babu in the lead role, alongside Sanjosh, Prachi Bansal, and Aarti Gupta, the film unfortunately did not perform well at the box office.
Now, a year later, the movie has finally found its way to an OTT platform. Aha has announced that it will arrive on May 1, 2026, and the audience’s digital response is now highly anticipated.
Produced by Chandra Chaganla under the Cans Entertainment banner, the film features Babu Mohan, Getup Srinu, and Baba Bhaskar in key roles. Sunil Kashyap composed the movie’s soundtrack.
Kara, starring Dhanush, is all set to hit theatres this Friday. Despite the makers organizing a promotional event in Hyderabad, the film has surprisingly failed to generate strong buzz in the Telugu states.
The action drama’s trailer promises an intense narrative and showcases Dhanush in a powerful avatar. However, when it comes to building hype and audience anticipation, the film seems to be lagging behind despite having popular names like Mamitha Baiju.
There is no major promotional hook or standout element that has caught widespread attention so far. With limited pre-release excitement, Kara now largely depends on its content.
Positive word-of-mouth will be crucial for the film to make an impact at the box office and connect with audiences in the Telugu market.
