Versatile actor Dhanush is all set to return to the big screen with his highly anticipated project, Idli Kadai, hitting theatres on October 1, 2025. The film will be released in Telugu under the title Idli Kottu.
Backed by Wunderbar Studio Dhanush’s own production house alongside Aakash Bhaskaran’s Dawn Pictures, Idli Kadai is a family drama that has already completed its censor formalities. It has been awarded a clean 'U' certificate, making it suitable for audiences of all age groups. The timing of the release during the holiday season is expected to give the film a significant box office boost. With its clean certification, festive release timing, and a compelling cast and crew, Idli Kadai is positioned as one of the most family-friendly releases of the season.
Idli Kadai boasts a strong ensemble cast including Nithya Menen, Arun Vijay, and Shalini Pandey in pivotal roles. The film’s music is composed by GV Prakash Kumar, while Kiran Koushik handles cinematography.
However, Idli Kadai will face stiff competition at the box office as it releases alongside Rishab Shetty's much-hyped Kantara: A Legend - Chapter 1, a pan-Indian venture.
