Did Nagarjuna Akkineni get offended when asked if he still has charm? Here’s how he reacted at the Kuberaa event
Nagarjuna Akkineni is all set to return to the big screen with his upcoming film Kuberaa, which also stars Dhanush and Rashmika Mandanna. The film is set to release on June 20, 2025. Before the release, the cast attended a promotional event, where Nagarjuna was asked an interesting question about his charm.
During the event, the host asked Nagarjuna how he still manages to keep his charm and whether he plans to make a full comeback to Hindi films. Nagarjuna, known for his witty style, smiled and replied, “What do you mean still have a charm?” showing his classic sense of dry humour.
He continued by saying, “Films like Kuberaa and my next film Coolie will also release in Hindi. I’ve been working for years, and even my South Indian films dubbed in Hindi were big hits here.”
He added, “Now that mainstream cinema is blending, it’s working even better. I never felt there was a gap. When did I say I left? I’ve always been around.”
If you look back, Nagarjuna made his Bollywood debut in 1990 with Shiva, the Hindi remake of his hit Telugu film, directed by Ram Gopal Varma. Since then, he’s appeared in several Hindi movies. His latest was Brahmāstra: Part One – Shiva, where he starred alongside Ranbir Kapoor and Alia Bhatt.
His upcoming film Kuberaa is being shot in Tamil, Telugu, and Hindi. It’s a social thriller directed by Sekhar Kammula, and tells the story of a beggar whose life changes dramatically after he comes into wealth — testing his values and choices.
Apart from Kuberaa, Nagarjuna will also be seen in Coolie, an action film directed by Lokesh Kanagaraj. In this movie, he’ll share the screen with Rajinikanth, and the cast includes Upendra Rao and a special cameo by Aamir Khan.
Coolie is packed with stars like Shruti Haasan, Soubin Shahir, Sathyaraj, and others. It’s set to hit theatres on August 14, 2025, and will release on the same day as War 2, starring Hrithik Roshan and Jr NTR.
