During the pre-release event of Akhil Akkineni’s Lenin, Nagarjuna revealed that he would share an update on his milestone 100th film, King100, after July 10, 2026, leaving fans eager to know more about the prestigious project.

While the official update is still awaited, fresh industry buzz has already sparked curiosity about the film. According to the latest reports, Tabu is likely to be seen in a negative role, reportedly playing the main antagonist opposite Nagarjuna. The speculation has come as a surprise, as many had expected the duo to reunite as an on-screen couple after their memorable collaborations in the past.

Directed by Ra Karthik, King100 is said to be a rags-to-riches drama with a strong father-daughter emotional backdrop. The film has been in the works for several months under the Annapurna Studios banner and features Sushmitha Bhat in a key role alongside Nagarjuna and Tabu.

With Nagarjuna promising an official update after July 10, 2026, fans now have even more reason to look forward to the announcement and find out whether the latest buzz about Tabu’s character turns out to be true.
