Sudheer Babu banks on 'Jatadhara', 'Maa Nanna Superhero'

Sudheer Babu, who has been struggling with recent box office failures such as Harom Hara, Sridevi Soda Centre, Hunt, and Aa Ammayi Gurinchi Meeku Cheppali, is now banking on two upcoming films to revive his career.

The first is Jatadhara, a supernatural fantasy film that marks a pan-Indian venture. Produced by Bollywood filmmakers and helmed by a Telugu director, Jatadhara carries high expectations as a crossover project.

The second film, Maa Nanna Superhero, directed by Abhilash Reddy Kankara, is more modest in scale but has the potential to be a sleeper hit. It hopes to follow the success of smaller, content-driven films like Balagam, Committee Kurrollu, and 35-Chinna Katha Kaadu. If the film delivers top-notch content, it could surprise audiences and boost Sudheer Babu’s career trajectory.

Both films represent significant turning points for the actor, and much is riding on their success.
