Adhurs 4K Re-release Advance Bookings: Adhurs was released in the year 2010 and became a cult film over the decades. The movie was directed by V V Vinayak, who made an epic comedy-action thriller with Jr NTR. However, Adhurs wasn't a box office phenomenon when it first hit the screens.

Adhurs featured Jr NTR in a dual role. One, Narasimha grows up with a mother and works for the police department as an undercover agent in the disguise of a gangster, while the other grows up to become a Brahmin priest named Chari, under the aegis of Bhattu, played by Brahmanandam.

The comedy track between Chari and Bhattu is one of the most revered combinations in Tollywood and it worked out brilliantly, making the movie a cult watch.

Adhurs Re-Release In 4K

Since it is going to take another six months for Jr NTR to hit the big screens with his much-anticipated film Devara, helmed by Koratala Siva, the fans' request to re-release Adhurs was heeded by the makers of the film.

Adhurs will be re-released in 4K version in select theatres across Andhra Pradesh and Telangana, the two Telugu-speaking states on November 18. The advance ticket bookings have begun. However, as much as the film's re-release is hyped, the advance bookings are not as big as it was expected to be.

According to a report in Track Tollywood, Adhurs re-release advance bookings are not even close to Megastar Chiranjeevi's Shankardada MBBS' re-release. The lack of interest in re-releases is one big reason, opine the experts.

Tollywood created history with the re-release of Superstar Mahesh Babu's Pokiri film at first, on the actor's birthday. They donated the collections to charity, reportedly. Ever since, the re-release trend caught up with Tollywood with more than a dozen films hitting the screens. So, how Adhurs performs at the re-release days is yet to be seen.

Adhurs stars Jr NTR, Nayanthara, Brahmanandam, Sheela, Mahesh Manjrekar, Ashish Vidyarthi, Tanikella Bharani, Sayaji Shinde, Ramaprabha, Mukul Dev, MS Narayana, Raghu Babu, and many other actors who played prominent characters. Comedian Raghu Karumanchi became even more popular after Adhurs, for his role in the film.

Chota K Naidu cranked the camera for this hilarious entertainer. Devi Sri Prasad composed the background score and tunes. Gautham Raju worked as the editor. Adhurs was bankrolled by Vallabhaneni Vamsi and Kodali Nani, Jr NTR's friends, and politicians under the Annapurna Studios banners for an amount of Rs 26 Crore. Reliance Big Entertainment presented this film.
