Dhanush is gearing up for Kuberaa release

With each passing day, interest is building up for the pan-India film Kuberaa, featuring Nagarjuna, Dhanush, and Rashmika Mandanna, directed by Shekhar Kammula. This film will be released on June 20, 2025, in the theatres and has already raised great hype among trade circles, especially in the Telugu states.

The film’s Andhra Pradesh theatrical rights are reportedly around Rs 18 crores, and indications are that the total business in Andhra Pradesh and Telangana could go up to a whopping Rs 40 crores. This number is a record for a Dhanush-starrer in that territory, and Nagarjuna’s presence has also opened up new avenues for the film in the entire region.

Nagarjuna still enjoys a lot of fan following, and it is being reported that he is playing a meaty role in Kuberaa. Behind the scenes, fans are already pre-emptively declaring the movie a hit, solely because of his powerful screen presence.

A tremendous buzz is surrounding the film when compared to Dhanush’s pre-release business of his Telugu films Raghuvaran B.Tech and SIR, which turned out to be super hits at the box office.

The film has been creating curiosity and expectations for the fact that Nagarjuna is in lead role, Dhanush’s multi-talented factor, Rashmika Mandanna’s screen presence, and Shekhar Kammula’s directorial skills.

The format and pan-India appeal of the project have struck a chord with the audience, irrespective of the language, insiders feel, and is being referred to as the summer masala movie of 2025.

With just weeks to go before release, Kuberaa has been promising to make a powerful impact on screen. While we’ll know on June 20 if the film has met the sky-high expectation, as per the pre-release business we have seen so far, Kuberaa stands a chance to be one of the biggest hits of the year.
