Overview

• On August 6, 2025, Manchu Manoj revealed 'David Reddy' as his 21st project, sharing its title, poster and historical setting.
• The film is described as a raw, high-octane historical action drama chronicling India’s anti-colonial struggle from 1897 to 1922.
• Hanuma Reddy Yakkanti will direct the period piece under the Velvet Soul Motion Pictures banner.
• The debut poster proclaims, “Born in the Madras Presidency, Raised in Delhi. Now, shaking the British Empire.”
• The announcement follows Manoj’s emotional return earlier this year with 'Bhairavam' after a nine-year hiatus.
