Raj & DK stage come back big screen after
7 years
Whilst the duo’s Farzi 2 rolls by 2025-end, it’s learnt that filmmaker duo plan to stage a comeback to the big screen after seven years.
Having emerged successful in web series in six years is obviously a remarkable track record.
Raj Nidimoru and Krishna DK, (better known as Raj-DK), have been among the busiest creators in the Hindi entertainment industry since the OTT boom, churning out The Family Man, Farzi, Guns & Gulaabs and Citadel: Honey Bunny . Now, even as the second season of Shahid Kapoor and Vijay Sethupathi’s Farzi is all set to go on floors by 2025-end, the filmmaker duo will simultaneously develop their theatrical slate as they are eager to return to the big screen after a seven-year break.
Raj-DK have their plate full in 2025 with their web offerings. As per source their calendar, is neck-deep in three series at the
moment – preparing for Farzi 2’s shoot, and juggling Rakt Bramhand and the post-production of The Family Man 3.
Even as work on these three shows is makingn brisk progress, they have also begun their theatrical slate. After wrapping up the Shahid and Vijay-led crime thriller by mid-2026,
Raj-DK intend to take their first theatrical venture in seven years on floors.” Their last big-screen outing was the breakout horror comedy Stree (2018), on which they served as writers and producers.
Their big-screen history has been something of a hit-and-miss. Even as their filmography includes much-loved and ingenious movies like Go Goa Gone and Stree, they have also delivered underwhelming outings in Happy Ending and A Gentleman.
For their next, the filmmakers have apparently zeroed in on two scripts. An insider reveals, “They will helm one, while the other will have another director. Raj-DK have regularly roped in different voices – be it Stree that launched Amar Kaushik as a director, or Suparn Varma who took charge of certain episodes in The Family Man 2. Their Telugu production, Cinema Bandi [2021], too kickstarted Praveen Kandregula’s directorial career. If things go as planned, one of the movies will roll in the second half of 2026.” The insider adds that Raj-DK’s focus on theatrical ventures does not imply that they will hit the brakes on their streaming work.
