'Rao Bahadur' teaser: Satyadev stars in psychological drama, out July 3

The makers of 'Rao Bahadur' have released a new teaser for the psychological drama starring Satyadev. Presented by Mahesh Babu and directed by Venkatesh Maha, the film, which explores psychological conflict, is set for a July 3 theatre release.

'Just A Teaser' Deepens Mystery

The latest teaser, titled "Just A Teaser," expands on the mystery that surrounded the film's earlier promotional material. Running through a series of striking visuals, the teaser introduces viewers to a world shaped by fear, hallucinations, delusions and psychological conflict. Satyadev, who plays the titular character Rao Bahadur, is seen in a markedly different avatar. The teaser hints at a story centred around a prince-like figure battling forces that may be supernatural, psychological, or perhaps a combination of both. The glimpse suggests that the protagonist is believed to be possessed by a demon, while also raising questions about perception and reality.
