Bhagavanth Kesari Rises Again on OTT Amid Jana Nayagan Buzz

In a surprising and positive development, Bhagavanth Kesari, the National Award-winning action drama directed by Anil Ravipudi, has found fresh momentum on OTT platforms, well ahead of its expected lifecycle. The renewed attention comes not from a re-release or promotion, but from growing online discussions sparked by the trailer of an upcoming Tamil film.

The recently released trailer of Jana Nayagan triggered widespread conversations on social media, with several viewers drawing parallels between its core theme and Bhagavanth Kesari, which featured Nandamuri Balakrishna in a powerful lead role. As these comparisons gained traction, interest in the Telugu blockbuster surged once again.

Currently streaming on Amazon Prime Video, Bhagavanth Kesari quickly climbed the platform’s drama category rankings. The film entered the charts at the second position and has now secured the top spot, reflecting strong repeat viewership and sustained audience appreciation.

In an interesting turn of events, the buzz around Jana Nayagan has indirectly propelled Bhagavanth Kesari back into the limelight, reinforcing its impact even months after release. The Tamil film is scheduled for a theatrical release on January 9, 2026, and will also release in Telugu as Jana Nayakudu. It is directed by H Vinoth, with Pooja Hegde playing the female lead.

With early comparisons already shaping audience expectations, it remains to be seen how Jana Nayagan fares at the box office. For now, Bhagavanth Kesari’s strong resurgence on OTT clearly underscores its enduring resonance with viewers.
