Buzz: This noted Telugu hero’s film eyes Christmas release

With the postponement of Ram Charan’s Game Changer from Christmas, mid-budget films are eyeing this festival date. Already, Nithiin’s Robinhood, directed by Venky Kudumula, is slated for release on December 20. Naga Chaitanya’s Thandel should have been released during Christmas, but due to pending works, the makers chose February.

According to the latest buzz, Allari Naresh’s intense rural action drama Bachhala Malli might come for Christmas. Directed by Subbu Mangadevvi, the movie is said to be a completely different outing from Naresh, unlike his conventional comedy entertainers. Hanu-Man actress Amritha Aiyer is playing the female lead opposite Naresh.

The official announcement regarding the release date is expected soon. Bachhala Malli also features Rao Ramesh, Hari Teja, Praveen, and others in pivotal roles. This Allari Naresh starter is being produced by Rajesh Danda and Balaji Gutta under Hasya Movies.

We need to see if there will be any additions to the Christmas race from Tollywood. From Kollywood, Soori and Vetrimaaran’s Vidudhala 2 is arriving during this season. From Bollywood, Varun Dhawan’s massy action drama, Baby John is hitting the screens on December 20.
