Hebah Patel announces Mario, makes a comeback with a striking new look

Hebah Patel is one of the most popular heroines in Telugu cinema, and despite delivering back-to-back flops, she continues to bag films consistently and gives her best in every project. Of late, Hebah has shed oodles of weight and is once again headlining a new Telugu film titled Mario. 

Hebah Patel back with a bang

She has teamed up with director Kalyani Gogana, who previously made the popular films Natakam and Thees Maar Khan. After a short gap, he is back with this interesting ride titled Mario.

The first-look poster was released recently, and Hebah Patel looks stunning in a bold new avatar, donning a striking red gown. A special aspect of the film is that Hebah is paired opposite debutant Anirudh, with the makers calling it a “Turbo-Charged Ramp Ride.” 

Rakendu Mouli, known for writing dialogues for dubbed Telugu films, has co-written the script and is also composing music along with Sai Karthic. The film’s shoot is progressing at a brisk pace and features Rakendu Mouli, Mourya Siddavaram, Yashna Muthuluri, Kalpika Ganesh, Madee Mannepalli, and Latha Reddy in key roles. 

Mario cast and crew details

MN Reddy handles cinematography, while Manikanth and Madee Mannepalli take care of editing. With a decent fan base among the youth, Hebah’s bold and intense transformation in Mario is expected to surprise audiences. The makers plan to release the film in the first half of 2026. Stay tuned for more updates on this project.
