On March 30, the pan-India film "Dasara" starring Nani was released worldwide in Telugu, Hindi, Kannada, Malayalam, and Tamil languages. This marks the first pan-India film in Nani's career, with Keerthy Suresh playing the female lead. Directed by Srikanth Odela, a disciple of Sukumar, the film was produced by Sudhakar Cherukuri under the banner of Sri Lakshmi Venkateswara Cinemas with a large budget. Other pivotal roles were played by Dixit Shetty, Saikumar, and Samudrakhani, with Malayalam actor Shine Cham Taco playing the villain.

The film received mixed reviews from the start, but collections in Telugu areas were as expected. The collections in other areas, however, were very low.
