The teaser of Allari Naresh’s upcoming film Alcohol is finally out, and it promises a twisted ride of crime, humor, and chaos. The makers have confirmed a New Year’s Day release, January 1, 2026, making this the first big Telugu film to hit screens in 2026. The tagline, “When there’s a high, there’s a price,” sets the tone for a gripping crime thriller with dark humor.
A Glimpse Into Alcohol’s Story
The teaser opens with Satya questioning Naresh’s character, a wealthy businessman, about why he avoids drinking despite his rich lifestyle. Naresh coolly replies, “I don’t like Alcohol controlling my mind.” Soon, irony strikes. He commits crimes far more dangerous than drinking, slapping and stabbing Satya’s character, dancing through the streets, and plotting the murder of an entire party crowd.
The teaser then moves to an eccentric party sequence where Secret Sharath (Harshavardhan), Sound Sundar (Girish Kulkarni), twins Ramesh and Suresh (Kireeti Damaraju, Venkatesh Kakumanu), Subash (Chaitanya Krishna), and Sanya (Ruhani Sharma) join the chaos. Naresh delivers a chilling declaration, he will kill them after they drink, leaving the teaser on a shocking note and pushing viewers to wonder what his real motive is.
Stylish Presentation and Powerful Team
Alcohol bursts with neon-lit frames, thumping Punjabi rap, and Ghibran’s music that raises the adrenaline. Chaitan Bharadwaj builds the tension with his gripping background score, perfectly balancing crime and comedy. Jiju Sunny captures the film with striking cinematography, and Niranjan Devaramane sharpens the pace with slick editing.
Meher Tej, who directed the dark comedy Family Drama, writes and directs Alcohol. S Naga Vamsi and Sai Soujanya produce it under Sithara Entertainments and Fortune Four Cinemas, with Venkat Upputuri serving as co-producer.
Allari Naresh in a Bold New Avatar
Allari Naresh completely transforms himself in Alcohol. He looks stylish and menacing, leaving behind his usual comic image. His combination with Satya promises humor and intensity, turning the film into an entertaining and thought-provoking experience.
With its mix of crime, dark humor, and eccentric characters, Alcohol promises to start Telugu cinema’s New Year 2026 with a wild, thrilling bang.
