Dewy-eyed news is brewing in the world of Telugu cinema as Anushka Shetty is said to be returning with superstar Nagarjuna Akkineni for his milestone 100th film, provisionally titled King 100. The much-endearing pair, who have worked together in hits like Super, Don, and Ragada, are said to be reuniting, reports a new report by 123 Telugu.
Although an official title announcement is yet to come, rumors indicate that the movie could be called Lottery King, a title that has already gone viral on social media. The news is driven by the reports that Nagarjuna will be essaying double roles in this high-octane action-thriller family drama.
To join the starry cast, actress Tabu too is said to be joining the crew, with another reunion. Nagarjuna’s sons Naga Chaitanya and Akhil Akkineni are expected to make cameo entries. The trio had earlier shared the screen in critically acclaimed and commercially hit Manam. Sources say megastar Chiranjeevi will be launching the project, making it a big bash event with various industry veterans set to attend.
The film is supposedly eyeing a May 2026 release, which could establish it as the next big summer blockbuster. As fans begin to clamor for more information, anticipation only continues to grow surrounding this landmark project.
Parallelly, Nagarjuna was in the headlines recently for protecting his personality rights. The Delhi High Court ordered in his favor in a case against unauthorized use of his identity on the internet. Showing appreciation, the actor tweeted on X (formerly Twitter) that he thanked his legal team and the court for standing by him in securing his digital rights in the current changing landscape of entertainment.
