Pushpa 2 to Devara: 11 Telugu Titles to Look Forward to On Netflix In 2024

In an age where streaming connects our content to the rest of the world and creates a brand for our films abroad, the need to have good quality mainstream cinema represented from the country at the highest level is a given. Netflix has been making its presence felt in the South, acquiring some big tentpole films in recent times. The streaming platform seems to have secured the exclusive rights to some of the most talked about and anticipated Telugu films of the year. Apart from Prabhas Salaar which was released on Netflix recently, the roster is full of titles either in production or in various stages of post-production.

Below are a few of the Telugu Cinema Titles Coming on Netflix in 2024:

Pushpa 2: The Rule

Director: Sukumar

Cast: Allu Arjun, Rashmika Mandanna, Fahadh Faasil

The popularity and cultural impact of Allu Arjun’s Pushpa (2021) needs no introduction. This rags-to-riches story of a red sandalwood smuggler, who gets embroiled in an ego tussle with a local police chief, is one of the most entertaining takes on themes of an underdog's innate search for identity and the way the world perceives one who thinks he has achieved it all. Be it the leading man’s masterful swag, the world building or the scale of execution common in the films of Sukumar. Pushpa 2: The Rule is only getting wilder than its predecessor.

Devara

Director: Koratala Shiva

Cast: Junior NTR, Janhvi Kapoor and Saif Ali Khan

Pegged as one of the most anticipated Telugu films, this is Junior NTR’s next after the blockbuster RRR (2022).
