Producer Naga Vamsi has been making waves in the Telugu film industry with back to back releases this year starting with Anaganaga Oka Raju in January and his recent release, Funky. Now, he's all set to deliver a couple of films in 2026, and one of them is creating a buzz, Emo Emo Idi, starring Roshan Meka and Preity Mukundan.
This romantic comedy, directed by Sailesh Kolanu, is a departure from his usual violent and action-packed films, and the glimpse released so far has received a positive response for its relatable take and catchy music. The Dasara release slot is heating up, with several big ticket films vying for attention.
Suriya's Karuppu is yet to announce its release date, but there's buzz it might arrive after the elections, making way for Suriya 47 under Venky Atluri to target a festival season release, possibly in August or Dasara. Meanwhile, the Trivikram-Venkatesh film was also expected to release during Dasara, but Naga Vamsi has surprised everyone with Emo Emo Idi.
Naga Vamsi's production banner, Sithara Entertainments, is known for backing innovative projects, and Emo Emo Idi seems to be no exception. With Hesham Abdul Wahab's music and Vamsi Patchipulusu's cinematography, this film is shaping up to be a treat for rom-com fans. The film's cast and crew are confident of making a mark in the crowded Dasara release slot.
As the competition for Dasara releases intensifies, it's clear that 2026 is going to be an exciting year for Telugu cinema. With several big-name films lined up, audiences are in for a treat.
