The regular shoot for actor Ravi Teja’s 76th film, tentatively titled RT76, commenced in Hyderabad on Sunday. Directed by Kishore Tirumala and produced by Sudhakar Cherukuri under the SLV Cinemas banner, the film is billed as a family entertainer blending comedy and emotion.

The project was officially launched earlier this month with a pooja ceremony in Hyderabad. Principal photography is now underway on a specially designed set, with Ravi Teja and key cast members participating in the initial schedule.

RT76 is written and directed by Kishore Tirumala, known for Nenu Sailaja and Vunnadhi Okkate Zindagi. The first-look poster showing the actor in a checkered suit aboard an aircraft was also unveiled recently. 

The technical crew of RT76 includes composer Bheems Ceciroleo, reuniting with Ravi Teja after the music success of Dhamaka; cinematographer Prasad Murella; editor Sreekar Prasad; and production designer AS Prakash.

RT76 is aiming for a Sankranthi 2026 theatrical release, with further details about the cast expected to be announced in the coming weeks. Meanwhile, Ravi Teja's Mass Jathara will be released on August 27.
