Bro (transl. Brother) is a 2023 Indian Telugu-language fantasy comedy film co-written and directed by Samuthirakani, from a screenplay by Trivikram Srinivas. Produced by People Media Factory and Zee Studios, it stars Sai Durgha Tej and Pawan Kalyan. The music is composed by Thaman S. It is a remake of director's own 2021 Tamil-language film Vinodhaya Sitham.
The film was announced in December 2021. Principal photography commenced in February 2023 and concluded in June 2023, with filming taking place in Hyderabad. Bro was released on 28 July 2023 without the special shows and ticket price hikes typically associated with major star-led films.[3][4] This decision was linked to political tensions, as Pawan Kalyan had been critical of the Andhra Pradesh government, which also impacted his previous films, Vakeel Saab (2021) and Bheemla Nayak (2022).[4] The film received mixed-to-average reviews from critics.
