The socially driven crime drama 23 (Iravai Moodu), directed by Raj R (of Mallesham and 8 AM Metro fame), was released in theatres on May 16, 2025, and received below-average reviews. Starring Teja and Tanmai Kushi in the lead roles, the film drew attention for its bold attempt to reflect real-life tragedies and caste-based injustices.
The movie is now available for streaming on two OTT platforms, Amazon Prime Video and ETV Win, giving it a second shot at reaching a broader audience. Whether 23 finds renewed interest among viewers online remains to be seen.
Produced by Studio 99, the film also features popular character artistes Jhansi, Pawon Ramesh, Thagubothu Ramesh, and Praneeth in key roles. The soundtrack, composed by Mark K Robin, adds emotional depth to this gritty narrative.
