Maddock Films has unveiled the teaser for its upcoming biographical drama Eetha, introducing audiences to a vibrant and emotionally charged cinematic world rooted in Maharashtra’s folk performance tradition. The teaser announcement came with a striking caption that instantly set the tone for the film’s energy: "Paan mein paan chakhna ho toh meetha! Aur toofan ko nachte dekhna ho toh... #EETHA! Teaser Out Now! In cinemas 28th August 2026."
Starring Shraddha Kapoor in a transformative role, Eetha is based on the life of legendary Tamasha and Lavani performer Vithabai Narayangaonkar. The teaser hints at a powerful blend of emotion, performance and cultural intensity, showcasing Shraddha in a never-before-seen avatar that leans deeply into traditional Marathi folk aesthetics. Her portrayal appears to capture both the grace and raw intensity associated with the iconic stage performer.
Directed by Laxman Utekar, known for Mimi and Chhaava, the film continues his streak of emotionally driven storytelling rooted in strong characters and cultural identity. The project also features Randeep Hooda in a key role, adding further weight to the film’s dramatic narrative. Music is composed by Ajay-Atul, whose signature style is expected to amplify the film’s folk energy and emotional scale.
The teaser’s tagline plays on contrast and rhythm, using playful imagery of “meetha paan” and “toofan” to evoke the dual nature of the story—sweetness and storm, tradition and turbulence, performance and personal struggle. This poetic framing sets Eetha apart as more than just a biopic, positioning it as a cinematic celebration of an art form deeply rooted in Maharashtra’s cultural heritage.
Set for a theatrical release on 28 August 2026, Eetha marks another ambitious step for Maddock Films as it expands beyond its successful horror-comedy universe into large-scale biographical storytelling. With its strong cultural grounding, powerful lead performance and acclaimed creative team, the film is already shaping up to be one of the most anticipated releases of 2026.
