King100 Glimpse: Nagarjuna Akkineni starrer introduces Tabu as a fierce antagonist
The 50-second glimpse marks the reunion of Nagarjuna Akkineni and Tabu after 28 years. While the two actors previously portrayed romantic interests, they will now be seen locking horns, with their characters following contrasting ideologies, particularly regarding the concept of luck.
Earlier, the makers released the teaser of King100 on the occasion of Nagarjuna Akkineni’s 67th birthday. The teaser shows the veteran actor taking charge of a system, rising through its ranks, and eventually becoming its king. Portraying a mastermind who seems to remain in control and fortunate at every turn, Nagarjuna brings his trademark charisma and effortless style to the screen.
Set against an action-packed backdrop, the film appears to revolve around a protagonist who challenges an established system while pursuing a personal motive that remains undisclosed.
Following the teaser launch, the makers confirmed that King100 is scheduled for a theatrical release on December 24, 2026, coinciding with the Christmas holiday season.
Besides Nagarjuna and Tabu, the film is also expected to feature Aishwarya Lekshmi, Sushmita Bhatt, and Vijayendra in pivotal roles.
