Keerthy Suresh’s Raghu Thatha Skips Telugu Release

Keerthy Suresh struggles

After Mahanati, Keerthy Suresh has struggled to replicate the same success, particularly in Telugu cinema. Her recent commercial ventures and female-oriented films haven’t resonated with audiences. Now, she is set to return with a new film titled Raghu Thatha, scheduled for release on August 15th. Surprisingly, this film won’t have a Telugu release.

Raghu Thatha’s Release Strategy Raises Eyebrows

Keerthy’s upcoming film, Raghu Thatha, is set to release on August 15th, but surprisingly, it will not see a Telugu release. This decision is unusual because Keerthy’s films typically get dubbed into Telugu, considering her strong fan base in the region. So, why is Raghu Thatha not following the usual formula?

Crowded Release Schedule in Telugu

Typically, Keerthy suresh’s films get dubbed into Telugu, but Raghu Thatha isn’t following that trend. The reason is simple: the Telugu cinema schedule is packed. Films like Double iSmart, Mr. Bachchan, Thangalan, Stree 2, Khel Khel Mein, and Veda are all competing for theater space, leaving no room for Raghu Thatha. Even with Keerthy’s star power, releasing the film in limited theaters is too risky.

Challenges Faced by Tamil Films in Telugu

This situation is reminiscent of earlier instances where Tamil films like Ayalaan and Captain Miller faced similar issues. During the Sankranti season, these films couldn’t secure a simultaneous Tamil-Telugu release due to theater unavailability.

Keerthy Suresh’s Raghu Thatha Possibility of a Delayed Telugu Release

If Raghu Thatha turns out to be a hit in its original version, a delayed Telugu release might be considered, possibly a week or two later. However, this remains uncertain.

Hombale Films’ Confidence in the Project

Despite the challenges, Hombale Films, known for their success with KGF, is confident in Raghu Thatha. The production house believes that the film has the potential to succeed, and they are banking on the audience’s positive reception to make waves even in a limited release.
