The wait is finally over. Superstar Venkatesh Daggubati officially teamed up with ace director Trivikram Srinivas for his next film. The team launched the project on August 15, 2025, in Hyderabad with a traditional pooja ceremony. The event, held on Independence Day, featured Venkatesh, Trivikram, and producers S. Radha Krishna (Chinababu), Naga Vamsi, and Suresh Babu. Suresh Babu switched on the muhurat shot and gave the launch a ceremonial start.
Why This Combo Matters
For the first time, Venkatesh and Trivikram joined hands as actor and director. Their bond, however, started in the early 2000s when Trivikram wrote for Venkatesh’s cult hits Nuvvu Naaku Nachav (2001) and Malleswari (2004). Both films turned into massive family entertainers and shaped Venky’s career. Ever since, fans kept waiting to see the two work together again, this time with Trivikram directing.
Trivikram earned fame as one of Telugu cinema’s most successful directors because he creates films rich with sharp dialogue, humor, and emotions. Venkatesh, on the other hand, entertains audiences with his cool presence and family-friendly image. Together, they now promise a mix of comedy, sentiment, and strong storytelling that can connect with every section of the audience.
The Right Follow-Up After Venky’s Blockbuster
In early 2025, Venkatesh scored the biggest hit of his career with Sankranthiki Vasthunnam, directed by Anil Ravipudi. The film smashed records and raised the bar for his next project. Venky chose Trivikram’s film as the perfect follow-up, since the story suits his family image and also carries Trivikram’s trademark witty flavor.
Right now, Venkatesh is shooting for Mega 156 alongside Chiranjeevi under Anil Ravipudi’s direction. Once he finishes that schedule, he will immediately start shooting for Trivikram’s film.
Production and Release Plans
Haarika & Hassine Creations is producing the movie, marking their eighth collaboration with Trivikram. The banner once again placed its trust in the director’s vision. The team will announce cast and crew details soon. Industry buzz suggests that Thaman or Mickey J. Meyer will score the music. The production team plans to begin regular shooting in the next few months and aims to release the film in summer 2026.
With a dream collaboration, strong production support, and sky-high anticipation, the Venkatesh-Trivikram movie already stands out as one of the most awaited Telugu films in recent years. Fans can look forward to official updates on the title, cast, and more in the coming weeks.
