Tollywood heartthrob Varun Tej is all set to tickle your funny bones and send chills down your spine with his upcoming horror-comedy ‘Korean Kanakaraju’. Directed by Merlapaka Gandhi, the film has been in the works for over a year. Now, industry insiders reveal that the makers are eyeing a grand release on August 7, 2026. While an official announcement is still pending, buzz has it that a fresh glimpse of the film will be dropped in the third week of June. Fans are already marking their calendars for this unique blend of scares and laughter.

Behind the Scenes of ‘Kamsahamnida’

Earlier in April, the team treated fans with a behind-the-scenes look at the making of the first single ‘Kamsahamnida’. The video showed the cast and crew having a blast on set, with Varun sporting a rugged mass avatar. The makers captioned it, ‘Behind every crazy vibe song… there’s an even crazier making!’ The film features Ritika Naik as the female lead, while comedian Satya plays a key role. Set across India and Korea, the story promises a fresh narrative with Varun essaying a character that is reportedly very new and special for him.

Varun’s Injury and Other Projects

Meanwhile, Varun Tej is also juggling his sports action drama ‘Bhari’, backed by his cousin Niharika Konidela’s production banner. While training for the film, the actor suffered an injury and had to undergo surgery. In April, he assured fans that the surgery went well and he is now focused on a quick recovery under the care of doctors. In ‘Bhari’, Varun will be seen playing a volleyball player. With two exciting projects in the pipeline, Varun Tej is certainly keeping his fans on their toes. Stay tuned to Cinecrazy for more updates on ‘Korean Kanakaraju’ and ‘Bhari’.
