By TeluguFunda / December 19, 2025

The theatrical trailer of Champion, starring Roshan and Anaswara Rajan in lead roles, was unveiled at a grand pre-release event. Adding star power to the occasion, Mega Power Star Ram Charan attended as the chief guest and officially launched the trailer, making the event even more memorable.

Set in the backdrop of the Nizam era shortly after India’s Independence, Champion narrates a powerful story rooted in history. The film revolves around the rebellion of Bairanpally, a village that stood among the first to challenge the oppressive Nizam rule. Against this turbulent setting, the story follows a young football aspirant whose personal dreams gradually transform into a larger mission to fight for his land and people.

Caught between ambition and responsibility, the protagonist’s journey reflects the true essence of a champion one who rises beyond personal glory to stand for justice. Director Pradeep Advaitham brings this period drama to life with striking authenticity, paying close attention to the era’s cultural nuances, costumes, and atmosphere of the 1948 Nizam region. The narrative seamlessly blends sports, rebellion, and emotional conflict, while also incorporating a touching love story amid the chaos.

Roshan delivers a compelling performance as the sportsman-turned-rebel, showcasing impressive dedication through his physical transformation and nuanced acting. Mastering the Telangana dialect for such a demanding role, the young actor proves his growing prowess with confidence and conviction.

Anaswara Rajan shines as the village belle who yearns for progress and freedom in a society that limits women’s aspirations. Nandamuri Kalyan Chakravarthy’s role adds further emotional weight, strengthening the film’s narrative core.

Veteran production designer Thota Tharani deserves special mention for meticulously recreating the period, effectively transporting audiences back in time. R. Madhie’s cinematography enhances the visual appeal with its gritty textures and striking frames, while Mickey J Meyer’s powerful background score elevates the intensity of the trailer, following the success of the film’s chartbuster album.

Backed by Swapna Cinema, with Zee Studios, Anandi Art Creations, and Concept Films co-producing, Champion boasts high production values that are evident throughout the trailer.

Overall, the trailer promises a stirring tale of dreams, defiance, and destiny, setting high expectations for Champion, which is slated for a grand theatrical release on December 25.
