Oh man, have you seen the new posters for Nagabandham? Nabha Natesh looks absolutely incredible! Honestly, after her "iSmart Beauty" days, I didn't think she'd pivot to something so... well, "divine," but here we are. The makers released her first look today (on Sankranthi!) and she’s playing a character named Parvathi.

Here is all the juicy detail I could find about the look and the movie. Excuse any typos—I'm typing this pretty fast!
Nabha’s "Ethereal" Look
In the poster, Nabha isn't doing the usual "glam" thing. She looks very serene and grounded.
The Vibe: She’s wearing a really elegant traditional saree with some heavy but tasteful jewelry. It’s not "over the top" like some mythological dramas; it feels more real and spiritual.
Symbolism: There’s a lot going on in the background. A vivid blue bird is sitting right near her hand, which people are saying represents innocence. There's also a peacock and a temple in the backdrop. It definitely gives off that "ancient India" feel.
The Caption: The makers shared it with a pretty cool line: "In a world bound by secrets, her belief becomes destiny."
What is Nagabandham even about?
I did a bit of digging because the title sounds so mysterious. Apparently, it's a Pan-India mythological adventure directed by Abhishek Nama.
The Plot: It's inspired by real-life legends about ancient Vishnu temples (think Padmanabhaswamy temple vibes). It revolves around the "Nagabandham" ritual—basically a secret snake-binding mantra used to hide massive treasures.
The Scale: This isn't a small movie. Word is they spent ₹20 crore just on the climax sequence! That’s insane for one scene.
The Cast: Nabha is one of the leads, but she’s joined by Virat Karrna (who plays Rudhra) and Iswarya Menon. Plus, veterans like Jagapathi Babu and Murali Sharma are in it.
Some Random Technical Stuff
The movie is coming out this Summer 2026 in almost every language—Telugu, Hindi, Tamil, Kannada, and Malayalam. Oh, and the music is by someone named Abhe and Junaid Kumar.
It’s actually a pretty big deal for Nabha because she took a bit of a break recently due to some health stuff/surgery, so seeing her come back with such a "commanding" role is really cool to see. She also has that other historical movie Swayambhu coming up with Nikhil, so she’s definitely in her "period drama era" right now.
