There are no major Telugu films releasing this weekend, with the only notable film being a dubbed movie titled "Raayan," featuring Dhanush in the lead role.
Despite Dhanush's popularity and strong market presence in the Telugu states, this film has not been adequately publicized. The trailer did not make a significant impact, resulting in a lack of excitement for the film.
In contrast, advance bookings for "Raayan" in Tamil Nadu, Kerala, and other regions are strong. However, the response for the Telugu version is quite lackluster.
"Raayan" has two unique aspects: it is Dhanush's 50th film as an actor, and it marks his second venture as a director. This adds a significant level of importance to the film for Dhanush.
Despite minimal publicity, the film has garnered attention from cinephiles. The key question now is whether Dhanush can achieve success in his role as a director.
