Keerthy Suresh is counting down the days until the release of her highly anticipated film, Uppu Kappurambu. With each passing day, the buzz surrounding the upcoming Telugu movie is reaching a fever pitch as the makers continue to pique the interest of fans with new updates. And the latest one is the release of its highly anticipated trailer. The makers dropped the video on Instagram, sending waves of excitement among fans. And guess what? The entertainment industry also couldn't stop itself from praising it.
The film is receiving a flurry of reactions from B-town, and recently Varun Dhawan gave a huge shout-out to the upcoming film. Impressed by the trailer, the actor took to his Instagram stories and wrote, 'What a lovely trailer, @keerthysureshofficial. My most favourite film of yours evaaa."
RajKummar Rao also dropped the movie's trailer on his Instagram stories and showered it with praise. Expressing his excitement to watch the upcoming thriller, he penned, 'Looks so much fun. Looking forward, @keerthysureshofficial. Superrrr @primevideoin."
Coming to Uppu Kappurambu, the film is set to premiere on Prime Video on July 4. It will be available to stream in Telugu with dubs in Hindi, Malayalam, Tamil, and Kannada, as well as subtitles in 12 languages, including English. Directed by Ani I.V. Sasi and written by Vasanth Maringanti, the film is produced by Radhika Lavu under the banner of Ellanar Films Pvt Ltd. Besides Keerthy Suresh, the upcoming film boasts a stellar ensemble cast including Suhas, Babu Mohan, Shatru, and Talluri Rameshwari in key roles.
Set in the early 1990s, Uppu Kappurambu unfolds in a fictional South Indian village, Chitti Jayapuram. The death rates are outnumbered by bureaucracy in the village, and the burial plots are in short supply. As the newly appointed idealistic village head, Apoorva (Keerthy Suresh) steps in, she faces ridicule from locals who are uncomfortable with a woman in power. But as she determined to fix things, she turned to the quirky graveyard caretaker, Chinna (Suhas), whose own motives sparked unintended chaos.
Speaking about Varun Dhawan's professional front, the actor is currently busy shooting for Border 2. The Anurag Singh film, the sequel to the 1997 war drama Border, also stars Diljit Dosanjh, Ahan Shetty and Sunny Deol. The actor also has Hai Jawani Toh Ishq Hona Hai in his pipeline. Directed by the legendary comedy film director David Dhawan, the rom-com film is slated for a grand theatrical release in October 2025.
RajKummar Rao, on the other hand, will be next seen in Pulkit's directorial Maalik. In the action-thriller, the actor will play the role of a gangster for the first time. The film also features Medha Shankar and former Miss World Manushi Chhillar in key roles.

Not apologetic about my body: John Abraham on moving past stereotypes in films
John Abraham recently talked about moving past body stereotypes, the media's focus on his looks, and choosing meaningful films that add to his legacy. He said that in his early days, he promoted his physique with roles in movies like 'Dostana' and 'Force', but now, as a producer, he wants to change that image. He also shared with India Today that while Bollywood used to be male-dominated, things have changed and the gap between men and women in the industry is now much an exclusive interview with India Today's Consulting Editor, Rajdeep Sardesai, actor John Abraham spoke about being labelled for his physique. He said, 'It was a monkey on my back but listen I'm not apologetic about the body. I mean I had it in 'Dostana' 15 years later I had it in 'Pathaan' - just the colour of the shorts were different, one was yellow and one was white. So I will definitely do action films, I'll do the big ones. I'd want to do Force - it's probably the most untapped big action film that's waiting to happen and I'm going to do that.""I will do the big ones but yes, I think the pressure was more from the media that kept reminding me 'hey listen it's about the body, it's about the body, it's about the body' and I'm like no, trust me, I'm going to give you something more. So when I became a producer the first thing I did was try and change that perception because right now, for me, it's about legacy, it's about what I want to leave behind, what I want to do. I'm not going to do four films a year; I'll do one film if that's meaningful and I'll try and make it work. Even if it doesn't, I'm okay,' he added. Watch the complete interview here: John also admitted he was always into fitness, but saw his body as a marketing tool early in his career. 'Always. But you know, I'm a marketing person also. So if it was about the body, I'd market the body. And talking about that, what do you mean by market the body? I mean I positioned myself as someone who has a body to show out there. So if it was the Dostana walking out of the water, if it was the Force, you know, it's fine - I just make the most of it,' he the subject of gender disparity in Hindi cinema, John observed, 'It isn't as much a macho male-dominated industry as it used to be. The lines have been blurred a lot to a large extent.'John Abraham was last seen in the Netflix spy drama 'The Diplomat', directed by Shivam Nair, which revolved around the US Embassy in Iran and followed the story of Uzma, a Delhi woman who travels to Malaysia for work but ends up trapped in Pakistan. His next release, 'Tehran', is set to premiere on Zee5 on August 14, right before Independence Day.- EndsMust Watch
