The Telugu film industry consistently leads in setting new trends. A resurgent trend in Tollywood features films with one hero and two heroines. While this concept is not new, as many Telugu films have previously followed this pattern, its popularity waned over time. However, after a significant hiatus, this trend is making a comeback, with several upcoming movies adopting this format. What are these films, and who are the heroines involved? We will delve into these details in this special report.
Gayathri Bharadwaj – Prisha Rajesh Singh
Allu Sirish stars in the upcoming film ‘Buddy,’ directed by Sham Anton. Scheduled for release on August 2, the film features two heroines: Gayathri Bharadwaj and Prisha Rajesh Singh. Both actresses have caught the audience’s attention in the promotional materials for ‘Buddy.’ The film is produced under the banner of Studio Green Films by KE Gnanavel Raja and Adhana Gnanavel Raja.
Malvika Malhotra – Mannara Chopra
Raj Tarun stars in the latest film ‘Thiragabadara Saami,’ directed by A.S. Ravi Kumar. In this film, two heroines share the screen: main heroine Malvi Malhotra and Mannara Chopra, who appears in a special song. Meanwhile, Raj Tarun and Malvi Malhotra have been in the news recently. Raj Tarun’s girlfriend, Lavanya, has filed a complaint alleging that he deceived her and has been romantically involved with Malvi Malhotra. Amid these controversies, there is heightened interest in ‘Thiragabadara Saami.’
Thanvi Akanksha – Seerat Kapoor
The latest film ‘Usha Parinayam,’ directed by veteran director Vijay Bhaskar and starring his son Sree Kamal, is set to hit theaters on August 2. The film features two heroines: newcomer Thanvi Akanksha and established actress Seerat Kapoor, who will appear in a special song. Thanvi Akanksha makes her film debut, while Seerat Kapoor has been known for her roles in films like ‘Run Raja Run,’ ‘Tiger,’ ‘Columbus,’ ‘Okka Kshanam,’ and ‘Touch Chesi Chudu.’
Meenakshi Chaudhary – Shraddha Srinath
Vishwak Sen stars in ‘Mechanic Rocky,’ directed by Raviteja Mullapudi and produced by Ram Talluri. The film, set against a love triangle concept, features Meenakshi Chaudhary and Shraddha Srinath as the female leads. Scheduled for release on October 31, ‘Mechanic Rocky’ has sparked curiosity among viewers. Meenakshi Chaudhary is already well-known from films like ‘Ichata Vahanamulu Niluparadu,’ ‘Khiladi,’ ‘HIT 2: The Second Case,’ and ‘Guntur Kaaram.’ Shraddha Srinath has also captured the Telugu audience’s heart with her performances in ‘Jersey’ and ‘Saindhav.’
Tamannaah – Raashi Khanna
The fourth installment in the ‘Aranmanai’ series, ‘Baak,’ was recently released in Telugu, directed by Sundar C. It stars Tamannaah Bhatia and Raashii Khanna, who together featured prominently in a song that became quite popular among fans. Despite being a horror film, ‘Baak’ failed to make a significant impact at the box office.
Tamannaah – Keerthy Suresh
Megastar Chiranjeevi’s last film, ‘Bhola Shankar,’ also featured two heroines and was directed by Meher Ramesh. Tamannaah Bhatia and Keerthy Suresh played the lead roles, with Tamannaah as Chiru’s love interest and Keerthy Suresh as his sister. Released on August 11 last year, the film failed to captivate the audience.
