Sing Geetham is a 2026 Telugu musical fantasy comedy directed by Singeetam Srinivasa Rao and produced by Nag Ashwin, presented by C. Aswini Dutt under Vyjayanthi Movies. Newcomers Ayaan and Ahilya Bamroo lead the cast with Shalini Kondepudi, and almost every line in the film is sung. It opened in theatres on 12 June 2026, runs 137 minutes and has been streaming on Netflix since 8 July 2026. It was the director’s 61st film and, as Wikipedia notes, his last: he died about four months after its release.

What the story is about

Pratap, fresh out of jail, arrives in Kuberapuram, a barren mining village, to claim his share of the gold mines his late father left behind. Years of mining have stripped the land, and a single tree is left standing; Gowri, a fiery young woman, lives in its hollow and refuses to let it be cut. Renu, who controls the mines with her father, sees only profit. When the last tree is brought down, the village is struck by a curse that leaves everyone able to communicate only in song, and the only way out is to face their own greed. The Hindu describes it as a reflection on the futility of greed with an ecological message.

Making and music

Nag Ashwin told The Hollywood Reporter India that the story was Rao’s long-held dream project, one he had pitched even before Pushpaka Vimanam; Rao was 94 when the film was made and often directed remotely through a virtual monitor at his home. Filming in Chennai and Hyderabad took about 77 to 78 working days. Devi Sri Prasad composed the music, C. Ankur shot the film and Aravind Mule was the production designer.

What critics said

The Hindu called it a bold musical fantasy and a refreshing departure from pan-Indian spectacle, praising the newcomers and the wordplay, while finding the later, fantasy-heavy portions stretched. The Hollywood Reporter India found it witty and whimsical with a strong environmental message, and NDTV and India Today also praised its originality.
