Originally released in 2005, Tollywood Superstar Mahesh Babu’s Athadu ended up being a decent grosser at the box office. Also starring Trisha in a lead role, the Trivikram directorial went on to become cult favorite upon its satellite premiere.
After 20 years of its initial release, Athadu is all set to return to the Telugu silver screen. The film will set a new record in Indian Cinema by becoming the first Indian movie to get a re-release in the IMAX format, literally getting a bigger and grander release. The film will be technically equipped with the 4K Ultra HD resolution and Dolby audio mastering.
Athadu will be hitting theaters across the twin Telugu states in August as Mahesh Babu’s birthday special. With 100 days to go for the release, a special countdown poster was released earlier today. Athadu was produced by veteran actor-filmmaker Murali Mohan. Manisharma composed the chartbuster audio album.
