Nikhil teases with Karthikeya 3 brand confirmation

Nikhil Siddhartha’s “Karthikeya 2” made waves as a remarkable film, breaking box office records across India and overseas. Starring Nikhil Siddhartha, Anupama Parameswaran, and Anupam Kher, “Karthikeya 2” became the top choice for movie lovers in the Hindi belt, surpassing “Laal Singh Chaddha” and “Raksha Bandhan.” Now, it has been officially confirmed that the makers will soon unveil “Karthikeya 3.”

Nikhil took to X (formerly Twitter) on Saturday to tease an update about the third installment of the franchise. He wrote, “Dr. Karthikeya In Search of a Brand new Adventure … Soon @chandoomondeti #Karthikeya3 #Karthikeya2 #cinema #adventure” (sic), accompanied by two still pictures of himself from the sets, one where he can be seen holding a book, and another where he is standing.

It appears that the third installment of the mystery adventure franchise will continue from where “Karthikeya 2” left off. Nikhil’s update has sparked excitement among moviegoers, with the post going viral and receiving massive likes from fans of the Tollywood actor and Telugu movie enthusiasts.

The phenomenal success of the “Baahubali” series, “KGF” series, “RRR,” and “Pushpa: The Rise” has set a high standard for South Indian movies across India.Against this backdrop, “Karthikeya 2,” a sequel to “Karthikeya” (2014), stood out with its stupendous performance at the box office. The Tollywood film, written and directed by Chandoo Mondeti, follows Dr. Karthikeya’s quest to find the lost anklet of Lord Krishna.

Cinegoers, critics, and several industry stalwarts have praised the remarkable journey and success of “Karthikeya 2.” Notably, the post-credit sequence of “Karthikeya 2” shows Dr. Karthikeya holding a key. Subsequently, a cinematic shot reveals an underwater city with a large gate, featuring a keyhole. It appears that the key in Dr. Karthikeya’s possession is meant for this gate. Speculation suggests that “Karthikeya 3” will showcase Dr. Karthikeya’s new quest and adventure.
