Pawan Kalyan's action-drama OG, Dhanush's directorial Idly Kadai (Idly Kottu in Telugu), and Rishab Shetty's Kantara: Chapter 1, are all set to hit theaters around the same time, igniting a fierce battle for audience attention. OG , an action-packed gangster film, is scheduled to release on September 25 , just ahead of the festive weekend. With its stylish visuals and Power Star's massive fan following, the film is expected to dominate screens, particularly in the Telugu-speaking states of Andhra Pradesh and Telangana. Dhanush, known for his versatility, has made a bold move by scheduling his emotional family drama Idly Kottu for an October 1 release. The film's reliance on a strong narrative and its guaranteed good theatrical release are expected to give it a strong foothold. Adding to the fire is Kantara: Chapter 1 , the prequel to the 2022 cultural phenomenon. Releasing on October 2 , this film is set to explore the mythological origins of the ritualistic folklore from the first part. With a strong fan base already established, Kantara: Chapter 1 is poised to draw audiences with its blend of regional folklore, spirituality, and action.
