Natural Star Nani is on a dream run, and 2025 is shaping up to be his golden year. With back-to-back blockbusters both as an actor and producer, the star has cemented his place among the most reliable names in Indian cinema today.
In a remarkable feat, two of his recent ventures — HIT: The 3rd Case and Court: State Vs A Nobody — are currently trending on Netflix India, with HIT 3 grabbing the No. 1 spot, and Court securing a strong presence at No. 8.
The gritty crime thriller HIT 3, directed by Sailesh Kolanu, has viewers hooked with its intense storytelling and gripping action. Nani’s performance as Arjun Sarkaar, a complex and brooding cop, is being widely celebrated by critics and fans alike. Many are calling it one of his most powerful roles to date.
Meanwhile, Court: State Vs A Nobody, directed by Ram Jagadeesh under Nani’s production banner, has quietly carved out a niche audience for its thought-provoking courtroom drama and layered narrative. With this film, Nani has proven that his instincts as a producer are as sharp as his acting chops. What makes this achievement even more impressive is the fact that both films were released within a month of each other and yet managed to capture distinct audiences — one with hard-hitting action, the other with courtroom suspense.
With his eye for strong scripts and compelling characters, Nani continues to raise the bar. Up next, he’s gearing up to shoot his highly anticipated project Paradise, reuniting with Srikanth Odela, the director of Dasara. Whether in front of the camera or behind it, Nani is clearly scripting a legacy of quality cinema that refuses to go unnoticed.
