Siddu Jonnalagadda, best known for his charm and wit in films like DJ Tillu, is ready to explore new and daring directions in his career. With his upcoming film Telusu Kada nearing release, the actor has already lined up fresh projects that show his growing confidence and willingness to experiment with bold, diverse roles.
Telusu Kada marks the directorial debut of Neeraja Kona and features Raashii Khanna and Srinidhi Shetty alongside Siddu. The romantic drama recently completed its shooting and is now in post-production. The makers have confirmed that the film will hit screens on 17 October 2025. Industry insiders describe it as a heartwarming love story told in Neeraja’s signature elegant style, focusing on relationships, emotions, and self-discovery.
While excitement builds for Telusu Kada, Siddu has already announced his next film titled Badass, directed by Ravikanth Perepu, with whom he previously collaborated successfully. The first look poster, bearing the tagline “If middle finger was a man”, has already made headlines for its bold tone and attitude. The film, produced by Sithara Entertainments, promises to show Siddu in a completely different light — more raw, intense, and daring than ever before. It is expected to release sometime in 2026.
Another project that Siddu had been associated with is Kohinoor, described as an adventure drama with a large-scale concept. However, recent reports suggest that the film may have been postponed or reworked, as the actor and producers are re-evaluating their next steps.
Siddu has faced some setbacks, including the lukewarm performance of his recent film Jack, but that hasn’t slowed him down. Instead, he appears more determined to reinvent himself. His upcoming choices reflect a clear desire to grow beyond his comfort zone and explore deeper, more challenging characters.
With Telusu Kada offering emotional storytelling and Badass promising attitude and intensity, Siddu Jonnalagadda seems set to balance heart and edge — marking a bold new phase in his career.
