Mahesh Babu started his own production house, GMB Entertainment, with Srimanthudu and also made Major, starring Adivi Sesh, along with Sarileru Neekevvaru. Now, Mahesh Babu is producing Satya Dev’s film, which is titled Rao Bahadur.
Rao Bahadur is a psychological drama set against the backdrop of a fading aristocracy, written, directed, and edited by Venkatesh Maha.
Superstar Mahesh Babu and Namrata Shirodkar’s GMB Entertainment banner will present this film, which is produced by A+S Movies and Sri Chakraas Entertainments.
Mahesh Babu is producing Satya Dev’s Rao Bahadur, and the first-look poster was released today. The poster shows Satyadev in a fancy period outfit, decked out with pearl necklaces, a unique turban, and stylish rings on his fingers.
Satyadev in and as Rao Bahadur
A thick moustache surrounds his intense gaze, set against vibrant peacock feathers. We can also see a tiny child character climbing on his clothes, perching on his shoulders, and dangling from flowers, creating a surreal fantasy vibe. The tagline ‘Doubt is a demon’ implies significant philosophical and psychological concepts.
A special video titled “Not Even a Teaser” will premiere in theaters this Independence Day, with a digital release to follow the following week, on August 18th.
The film is set for a global release in summer 2026, in Telugu with subtitles in multiple languages.
