Tamil superstar Dhanush’s upcoming Telugu film Kuberaa is already creating a buzz in the industry, and it has now reportedly secured a massive OTT deal. According to sources, the digital rights for the Sekhar Kammula directorial have been sold for an impressive ₹50 crore, making it one of the most lucrative streaming deals in recent times.
“The makers are fetching ₹50 crore just from the OTT rights, which is among the highest for a Telugu film in the current market,” a source revealed. “With a star cast that includes Dhanush, Nagarjuna, and Rashmika Mandanna, the film has generated immense expectations. The OTT deal reflects that hype.”
Kuberaa is being pitched as a pan-India action adventure, with a storyline set in Mumbai. The film's budget has reportedly ballooned to ₹120 crore, as the producers aim to appeal to audiences across linguistic and regional boundaries.
“Dhanush and Nagarjuna enjoy strong popularity among Hindi-speaking audiences, while Rashmika is riding high after the success of Chhavva,” the source added. “The producers are capitalizing on the expanding national appeal of these stars.”
The film is expected to be one of the most expensive projects in Dhanush’s career. Industry insiders believe Kuberaa could significantly boost his market presence across India, benefiting his upcoming Tamil ventures as well.
“Dhanush’s stocks are rising. His collaboration with acclaimed director Sekhar Kammula is a unique move. The film’s rags-to-riches narrative has the potential to strike a chord with both class and mass audiences,” the source concluded.
