The Aranmanai franchise has undeniably carved a niche for itself in the Tamil film industry, garnering a significant following with its blend of horror and comedy. However, its reception in the Telugu-speaking states has been somewhat tepid, failing to capture the same level of interest among netizens. This lukewarm response prompted the makers to refrain from dubbing the third installment into Telugu. However, the tide seems to be turning with the fourth installment, titled Baak in Telugu, set for a simultaneous release on April 26th, 2024.
Baak boasts a stellar cast including Sundar. C, Tamannaah Bhatia, and Raashi Khanna in pivotal roles, signaling a concerted effort to reignite interest among Telugu viewers. Given the long delays and uncertainties surrounding the project, including Raashi Khanna expressing uncertainty about the release date during an Instagram live session with fans, the anticipation for Baak is palpable among fans eager to witness the latest installment of the franchise.
As the promotional campaign for Baak kicks into high gear, the spotlight falls on Tamannaah Bhatia and Raashi Khanna, both of whom are familiar faces to Telugu audiences due to their roots in Tollywood. However, the success of the promotional efforts hinges on their active participation, which remains uncertain given their busy schedules and the tendency of actors in dubbed films to prioritize the original language promotions. Fans eagerly await the release of the Telugu trailer and hope for the presence of the lead actors at the trailer launch event, which could significantly boost the film’s prospects in the Telugu market.
