T-Series South has bagged the audio rights to Naga Shaurya's next Bad Boy Karthik, the makers revealed on social media. After a long hiatus, Harris Jayaraj is making his Telugu filmmaking comeback with the film's soundtrack.
The official post read: “Get ready for a magical album & an electrifying BGM by the one and only @Jharrisjayaraj. @IamNagashaurya’s Bad Boy Karthik audio on the prestigious music label @tseriessouth. A musical blast coming your way soon.”
The film features Naga Shaurya in what is billed as a rugged avatar. As the female lead, debutante Vidhi Yadav joins him. Samuthirakani and VK Naresh play significant roles in the supporting cast.
Bad Boy Karthik is directed by Arunachalam and produced by Srinivasa Rao Chintalapudi under the banner of Sri Vaishnavi Films. Earlier this year, in January, on Naga Shaurya's birthday, the film's title and first look were revealed.
Apart from Harris Jayaraj’s return, the film also brings together a seasoned technical crew. Rasool Ellore serves as the cinematographer, Kotagiri Venkateswara Rao handles the editing, while production design is by Rajeev Nair.
This project is being seen as a potential comeback vehicle for Naga Shaurya, who was last seen in Rangabali (2023). The actor is expected to portray a grittier character compared to his earlier roles. While an official release date has yet to be announced, promotional activity around the film has begun to pick up with the audio launch expected soon.
