Telugu cinema enthusiasts, take note—Nandamuri Balakrishna’s cult mass action entertainer Lakshmi Narasimha is coming back to the theatres in all its glory. The movie, which was initially released in 2004, will be making a grand re-release on June 7th, 2025, in 4K resolution globally. But that’s not all—going by buzz in Tollywood circles, this new version will have never-before-seen content, giving fans a new and exciting experience of one of NBK’s most intense performances.
The trailer has already left the internet blazing, with Balakrishna fans swamping social media looking forward to what’s being billed as “The Real OG of Attitude Mass Bonanza.” The title is not hyperbole—it’s an indication of the sheer screen presence and high-speed performance Balakrishna unleashed in Lakshmi Narasimha, which is still fresh in fans’ minds even after two decades.
A Cult Classic That Still Commands Roars
Lakshmi Narasimha, helmed by Jayanth C. Paranjee, was a Telugu official remake of the Tamil hit Saamy. The film narrates the tale of a no-nonsense, honest cop who pits himself against an unchecked political system and purifies it with his adamant attitude and fists of justice. Although the story may be a predictable mass formula, it was Balakrishna’s looming presence, fierce dialogue delivery, and intense screen aura that made the film a bonafide cult classic.
From punch dialogues that were going viral long before social media came into being to high-octane action sequences and heart-wrenching scenes, the movie had all the ingredients of a mass blockbuster. The role of Lakshmi Narasimha became the hallmark of Balakrishna’s tradition of bold roles, further cementing his image as the lionhearted hero of the masses.
Releasing the film in 4K not only acknowledges the contribution of NBK to Telugu cinema but also invites a new generation of fans to experience the fire and anger that defined early 2000s action cinema.
Unseen Footage: A Bonus for Hardcore Fans
Though the 4K remaster itself is sufficient to attract NBK enthusiasts, industry insiders have teased a bigger surprise—exclusive, unseen video content will be included in this re-release. Although the creators have maintained the type of these clips as a secret, enthusiasts are guessing it may feature longer action sequences, cut emotional scenes, or perhaps impactful dialogues that failed to make it to the final cut during the original theatrical release.
For the die-hard enthusiasts, this is a dream realized. It is a once-in-a-lifetime chance to experience never-before-seen scenes of one of NBK’s all-time greats, painstakingly remastered and restored for the big screen. The news has already set fire to debates throughout fan forums and social media platforms, with #LakshmiNarasimha4K and #NBKMassReRelease going viral among Telugu cinema buffs.
Why the Timing Couldn’t Be More Perfect
Lakshmi Narasimha’s re-release happens at the perfect moment with Nandamuri Balakrishna experiencing the resurgence in his popularity. Recent successes, assertive public outbursts, and block-buster OTT talk show Unstoppable with NBK have made him more than just a movie actor; he’s also a pop icon. By way of a timely re-release, not only are they cherishing his history, but he gets to enlarge his ever-swelling fan following even further.
Also, re-releases of old films in 4K have been the new trend in Tollywood, with a number of old-time blockbusters being remastered and released again. These re-releases are not mere nostalgic exercises—they are events. The theatrical reception of films such as Pokiri, Jalsa, and Kushi in 4K has demonstrated that audiences are happy to turn up in huge numbers to experience their beloved moments on the big screen.
Lakshmi Narasimha is set to be no exception. With a mass icon like NBK at the helm, the film’s comeback is set to make fireworks at the box office again.

With Lakshmi Narasimha back in theaters on June 7th in 4K with bonus unseen footage, fans are now ready to bask in one of his most beloved characters like never before.
