Annapurna Studios revealed Tabu’s first look as a politician in the film King 100 on November 4. Directed by R.A. Karthik, this movie marks Nagarjuna Akkineni’s 100th project and hits theaters on December 24. Tabu said, “So happy to be playing Mahanthi Jhansi Rani in King 100.” It looks like war.
To coincide with actor Tabu’s birthday on November 4, Hyderabad-based production house Annapurna Studios revealed the first look of her character from the new Telugu film King 100. Written and directed by R.A. Karthik, the film will be Nagarjuna Akkineni’s 100th and is scheduled to release on December 24, locking horns with Shah Rukh Khan-starrer King at the box office.
In King 100, Tabu plays a fierce politician named Mahanti Jhansi Rani who believes in hard work over luck. The video glimpse of the character shows her taking the oath of office and a statement declares that this time it’s not love, but war.
Nagarjuna Akkineni shared the video glimpse on X, wished Tabu on her birthday and recalled their blockbuster 1996 film Ninne Pelladatha. He added that Tabu’s presence made his 100th film special. Tabu, too, shared the video on her Instagram account and stated, “So happy to be playing Mahanthi Jhansi Rani in King 100.”
