Superstar Mahesh Babu, known for his massive fan following, is all set for the re-release of his iconic film Athadu. Following the success of re-releases like Murari and Businessman, Mahesh's older movies have been making waves at the box office. His hit film Seethamma Vakitlo Sirimalle Chettu also had a successful re-run, surprising the trade circles with its box office performance.

Athadu, released in 2005, played a pivotal role in Mahesh's career. Despite its initial theatrical performance, the film became a major hit after its TV premiere. Now, the movie is set for a re-release, with 4K remastering and special sound mixing underway. Distributors are already competing for the rights, and the movie will hit theaters on August 9 as a special birthday treat for Mahesh's fans.
