Dasara 2026 sees a shift in the festival lineup with multiple films adjusting release dates. The season is shaped by delays, new launches, and strategic scheduling around the holiday window.
Ranabaali's Day 10 net collection hit ₹2.90 crore in India, taking the worldwide gross to ₹73.65 crore, per Sacnilk figures reported by Filmibeat on October 26.
Comrade Kalyan hits ₹16 crore worldwide gross by Day 6 — break-even achieved. Sree Vishnu’s comeback is real, but the clock is ticking.
Aadarsha Kutumbam is officially off the Dasara calendar. The film, once eyed for a grand October 9th launch, has been pulled from the festive lineup with no new date announced.
The film’s strength lies in how familiar it feels. It’s not about grand sets or city slickers. It’s about homes, family fights, last-minute changes, and the quiet panic before the big day.
Crazy Kalyanam hits screens on October 16 — a Friday, and a Dasara date with intent.
Aadarsha Kutumbam House No: 47 — AK 47 is finally set for October 30, after being delayed twice. The film, Trivikram Srinivas’ first with Venkatesh in the lead, will restart promotions during Dasara. Producer Naga Vamsi says the delay was to refine technical aspects, despite the film being complete.
Sree Vishnu’s Comrade Kalyan trailer is out, dropping ahead of a Friday release with zero major Telugu competition. The film, a 1992-set comedy about a Naxalite hiding in a border town, leans into absurdity — with romance, language barriers, and manhunt scenes packed with laughs. With Dasara holidays starting October 10, the timing is perfect. If word of mouth holds, it could be Vishnu’s comeback.
