Annapurna Studios Announces #Shiva4KContest

A classic movie is like an old tree in a city, it has strong roots in memory, and each new generation still enjoys the shade it provides. Shiva, a cult film that made a big impact on Telugu cinema in the late 80s, is coming back in a special 4K Dolby Atmos version. Annapurna Studios is making this re-release a celebration of creativity and fan passion with a unique contest.

The #Shiva4KContest is for fans, designers, and storytellers to share their ideas.

Anyone can make a trailer, poster, or artwork that reflects the film's themes, characters, or the unforgettable energy that made Shiva a classic. To join, participants need to share their work on X, Instagram, or Facebook with the hashtag #Shiva4KContest and mention Annapurna Studios. This isn't just about remembering the past, it's about how fans today connect with the spirit of the movie in their own way.

What makes the contest even more exciting is the prizes. The top three creators will get the chance to meet King Nagarjuna, who played the lead role in Shiva, and the movie's director, Ram Gopal Varma. For fans who grew up watching this film, it's like stepping back into the world they loved. For younger creators, it's a chance to show their talent and link up with the legends who helped shape modern Telugu cinema.

The submission deadline is 20th October 2025, with the film’s grand re-release set for 14th November 2025. This contest celebrates Shiva, connecting the film’s spirit with fans directly.
