Aadi Saikumar’s latest film Shambala marks a positive phase for the actor. After putting in solid effort, Aadi is seeing decent returns, with the film registering an okay run at the Telugu box office.
Directed by Ugandhar Mani, the mystical thriller has drawn attention for its genre-focused storytelling and presentation. Following its Telugu outing, the makers are now eyeing the North Indian market with a Hindi release.
Initially planned for a January 1, 2026 release, the Hindi version has been postponed to January 9, 2026. The Hindi trailer was unveiled by Rishab Shetty. It remains to be seen how the film will connect with Hindi audiences, depending largely on the promotional push.
Apart from Aadi, the A-rated film features Archana Iyer, Swasika Vijay, Madhunandan, Ravi Varma, Meesala Laxman, Shiju Menon, and Harsha Vardhan in key roles. The film is produced by Mahidhar Reddy and Rajasekhar Annabhimoju, with music composed by Sricharan Pakala.
