Pelli Kani Prasad OTT Release Date: If you missed catching it in theatres, don¡¯t worry, this small-town Telugu comedy-drama is all set to stream on ETV Win starting June 5. Released in theatres on March 21, 2025, the film flew under the radar but is now getting a second shot at viewership via OTT. Here's everything you need to know about the film.
A marriage that never happens, but why?
At the heart of Pelli Kani Prasad lies a hilariously real yet socially biting narrative. The movie follows Katnam Prasad, played by Sapthagiri, a small-town man caught in a loop of failed marriage proposals. Why? Because his father refuses to give a dowry, something that forms the core conflict of the movie. Every time Prasad tries to tie the knot, his father¡¯s orthodox stand throws a wrench in the works.
Tired and frustrated, Prasad seeks divine help and starts consulting a swami (a self-styled spiritual guru), only to be told that the problem lies within his own home. What follows is a blend of comedy, drama, and satire, exploring how Prasad tackles his family, society, and superstitions while trying to build a life on his own terms.
