Tollywood star Nandamuri Balakrishna is teaming up with director Gopichand Malineni for his 111th feature film, titled Dada. The mass crime-action thriller marks the director's second collaboration with the actor following their box-office hit Veera Simha Reddy. Production banner Vriddhi Cinemas, headed by producer Venkata Satish Kilaru, unveiled the title poster alongside an energetic title glimpse, officially setting the worldwide theatrical release date for December 24, 2026 to capitalize on the Christmas holiday weekend.
The title teaser highlights a stylish gangster aesthetic, introducing Balakrishna with the tagline ‘King of Chaos ’. Sporting dark sunglasses, a leather jacket, gold chains, and a weapon slung over his shoulder, the star portrays an intimidating, larger-than-life underworld figure. Set against a Mumbai backdrop, the teaser features an intense standoff sequence with law enforcement officers. It showcases sharp mass dialogues written by Sai Madhav Burra, complemented by S. Thaman's energetic background score and the track "Raja Hoon Main."
The film stars Nandamuri Balakrishna in the title role, alongside Kajal Aggarwal as the female lead and Manchu Manoj in a pivotal supporting character. The secondary cast features an impressive ensemble including Samuthirakani, Sarath Kumar, Abhimanyu Singh, Upendra Limaye, Manish Wadhwa, and Swasika.
