Ramnagar Bunny is a 2024 Indian Telugu-language romantic comedy film written and directed by Srinivas Mahath. It stars Chandrahass (in his acting debut), alongside Vismaya Sri, Richa Joshi, Ambika Vani, and Ritu Manthra. Produced by Malayaja Prabhakar and Prabhakar under Sri Sumanohara Productions, the film follows a carefree young man navigating multiple romantic entanglements and personal responsibility in the Ramnagar neighborhood.

The film was theatrically released on 4 October 2024 and premiered on the streaming platform Aha on 17 January 2025.[1] It received mixed reviews, with praise for Chandrahass's energetic performance but criticism for predictable tropes and pacing issues.[2][3]

Plot

In the bustling Ramnagar area, 21-year-old Bunny, the son of an auto driver, leads a reckless life, squandering his father's savings on fleeting pleasures and juggling relationships with college sweetheart Shailu, Deepu, Naina, and married Tara. When his actions jeopardize his sister's wedding, Bunny faces a wake-up call, forcing him to choose between immature thrills and true maturity. The story explores themes of love, family, and growth amid comedic chaos.[4]

Production

[edit]

Principal photography began in mid-2024, with filming primarily in Hyderabad and the Ramnagar locality to capture an authentic urban vibe. The soundtrack features four songs composed by Ashwin Hemant, blending youthful energy with emotional undertones. Chandrahass, an internet sensation known as "Attitude Star," made his film debut after gaining viral fame for his mannerisms on social media.[5] The teaser and trailer emphasized comedic elements and the lead's charisma, generating pre-release buzz.[6]

Release

[edit]

Ramnagar Bunny was released theatrically on 4 October 2024 in Telugu-speaking regions. Digital rights were acquired by Aha, with the streaming premiere on 17 January 2025.[7]

Box office

[edit]

The film opened to a modest response, grossing approximately ₹40 lakh on its first day and ₹80 lakh over the opening weekend (₹40 lakh share). It underperformed commercially, labeled a "dud" in some reports, though positive word-of-mouth aided later runs.[8]

Reception

[edit]

Ramnagar Bunny garnered mixed reviews from critics. Deccan Chronicle praised it as a "youthful entertainer" highlighting Chandrahass's debut charisma and production values, but noted unnecessary dragging scenes and familiar rom-com tropes.[9] Hindustan Times noted it as a "fun but flawed rom-com" with a patchy screenplay.[10] A success meet post-release celebrated "super hit talk," but overall reception was tempered by its commercial fate.[11]

Music

[edit]

The soundtrack was composed by Ashwin Hemant, with lyrics by Kasarla Shyam. It includes four songs that complement the film's light-hearted tone.
