Rajamouli launches ‘Rao Bahadur' glimpse
Superstar Mahesh Babu and Namrata Shirodkar's GMB Entertainment proudly present acclaimed filmmaker Venkatesh Maha's new film, 'Rao Bahadur', featuring the versatile Satya Dev in the lead role. Best known for his critically acclaimed films 'C/o Kancharapalem' and 'Uma Maheswara Ugra Roopasya', Venkatesh Maha now delves into an evocative psychological drama that promises to push the boundaries of Telugu cinema. Produced in collaboration with two of the industry's most successful banners—A+S Movies and SriChakraas Entertainments— 'Rao Bahadur' is already making waves. The title and first-look poster have struck a chord with audiences. Today, ace director SS Rajamouli unveiled a compelling new video titled 'Not Even A Teaser', offering a captivating glimpse into the world of the film. Set against the backdrop of a crumbling aristocracy, the story follows a reclusive protagonist who lives in isolation within an aging mansion. He believes himself to be cursed—not by a typical spirit, but by the very embodiment of doubt itself. This demon of doubt looms over his existence, blurring the lines between reality and illusion. The video subtly teases fragments of his past, including a mysterious love story that seems to hold deeper emotional and psychological layers. A parallel narrative unfolds through the lens of a police investigation, where probing questions only deepen the ambiguity and intrigue, suggesting that the strange occurrences are just the beginning of something far more unsettling. Stylistically, the film feels like visual poetry. With his distinct narrative voice, Venkatesh Maha once again showcases his flair for storytelling—blending drama, psychological thrills, and dark humour with poetic elegance. Satya Dev delivers a powerhouse performance, portraying a character that spans multiple timelines—from youthful innocence to aged wisdom. With strikingly different looks and a deeply immersive portrayal, he brings immense depth and nuance to the role. The teaser also introduces other main characters played by Vikas Muppala, Deepa Thomas, and Anand Bharathi. Cinematographer Kartik Parmar and composer Smaran Sai elevates the narrative with their artistic finesse. Rohan Singh's production design impresses with its authenticity and attention to detail, while the overall production values reflect a grand cinematic vision. The 'Not Even A Teaser' video has successfully sparked intrigue and anticipation, offering just a taste of the layered storytelling to come. 'Rao Bahadur' is slated for a global release in Summer 2026, in Telugu with subtitles in multiple languages.

Rao Bahadur teaser: Viewers notice hidden detail in Satyadev's psychological drama backed by Mahesh Babu. Watch
Rao Bahadur teaser: After C/o Kancharapalem (2018) and Uma Maheswara Ugra Roopasya (2020), Venkatesh Maha is back with another genre-bending film, Rao Bahadur. The teaser for the film starring Satyadev and presented by Mahesh Babu was released on Monday. Viewers immediately began noticing the hidden details in it. Rao Bahadur teaser: Satyadev plays an intriguing character in the Venkatesh Maha film that seems more than what meets the eye. Rao Bahadur teaser The two-minute thirty-second-long teaser of Rao Bahadur begins with Satyadev's titular character looking shabby and contemplating something. He lives in a run-down palace called Bhuvanalayam, telling another character that he is 'possessed' by a demon called doubt. His doubts are dismissed, though. Satyadev is also soon seen in a different, more polished look, where he falls for a woman, played by Deepa Thomas. The police, who are looking into a mystery, however, do not think these two worlds of his align. At one point in the teaser, people around Rao Bahadur even look at him with incredulity as he dressed up like a royal. Sharing the teaser on X (formerly Twitter), SS Rajamouli wrote, 'Happy to see Satyadev evolving and portraying larger-than-life characters. My best wishes to him and Maha for #RaoBahadur. Can't wait to see what you guys are up to.' Given how wacky the teaser of Rao Bahadur was, hinting at a lot without giving away much, people began decoding hidden clues in it. One X (formerly Twitter) wrote, 'just noticed the eyes moving on the statues…this movie is going to be trippy man,' referring to a scene with the policeman. Another commented, 'I noticed the eyes moving,' on YouTube. One wrote, 'I didn't even recognise that he is Satyadev, such a great actor.' About Rao Bahadur Rao Bahadur is produced by Chinta Gopalakrishna Reddy, Anurag Reddy, and Sharath Chandra under SriChakraas Entertainments, A+S Movies, and Mahayana Motion Pictures. Mahesh Babu and Namrata Shirodkar present it under GMB Entertainment. Venkatesh wrote, directed and edited the film that also stars Vikas Muppala, Bala Parasar, Anand Bharathi, Pranay Vaka, Kunal Kaushik, Master Kiran and others. It is slated for release next summer.
