Sharwanand is stepping into a completely new zone with his upcoming film Bhogi. For the first time, he is working with director Sampath Nandi for a big pan-India period action drama.
The film is produced by K. K. Radhamohan under the banner Sri Sathya Sai Arts and presented by Lakshmi Radhamohan. The makers unveiled the first-look poster today, and it has instantly grabbed attention.
Bhogi: Sharwa’s Most Rugged Look So Far
In the first look poster of Bhogi, Sharwanand appears in his most intense and rugged avatar to date. With a thick beard, heavy moustache, and messy curly hair, he looks raw and powerful.
He is seen sitting behind a large rustic weapon, hinting that the film will have strong action elements. The dark background with sparks and smoke adds to the serious tone of the film. The tagline of the movie reads:
“A Blood Fest”
This clearly shows that Bhogi will be a high-energy action drama. Sharwanand seems to have gone through a major transformation for this role.
Set in the Late 1960s
Director Sampath Nandi has set the story along the North Telangana–Maharashtra border during the late 1960s. The period backdrop is expected to play a key role in the narrative.
Currently, the team is shooting important action sequences in Hyderabad on a specially constructed set. These action scenes are being choreographed by stunt master Dilip Subbarayan.
Strong Cast and Technical Team for Bhogi
The film stars Anupama Parameswaran and Dimple Hayathi as the female leads, with Music composed by Bheems Ceciroleo, while cinematography is handled by Kishore Kumar Arokia. Production design is by Kiran Kumar Manne.
Grand Pan-India Release
The makers have officially announced that Bhogi will release in theatres on August 28, 2026, during the festive occasion of Raksha Bandhan. The film will release in Telugu, Tamil, Kannada, Malayalam, and Hindi simultaneously.
With this project, Sharwanand is clearly aiming for a bigger scale and wider reach. It now remains to be seen how this mass transformation connects with the audience.
