Overview
- The trailer was released and unveiled at a high-profile Mumbai event on Friday, October 30, where Shraddha Kapoor performed traditional dances and the cast and makers attended.
- Filmmakers present Eetha as a musical biopic of Vithabai Narayangaonkar that centers Lavani and Tamasha, two Marathi folk theatre forms that combine song, dance and storytelling.
- Early audience and industry reactions to the trailer have been strongly positive, with producers publicly praising Shraddha's transformation and social media users calling it a possible career‑defining turn.
- The film is directed by Laxman Utekar, produced by Dinesh Vijan and others, features music by Ajay–Atul, and includes supporting roles by Randeep Hooda—whose first look as Merchant was released before the trailer—and Mohammed Zeeshan Ayyub; some outlets also report a posthumous appearance by Nana Patekar.
- Eetha remains scheduled to open in cinemas on December 4, 2026, and makers say the project aims to bring wider attention to the lives and craft of Maharashtra's traditional female performers.
