The makers have not officially confirmed the title. Balakrishna recently suffered an injury during the shoot and is undergoing physiotherapy after knee surgery, he is expected to return to the sets by October. The team aims to complete the film quickly after his return and targets a December 24, 2026 release in the Christmas season. Greatandhra reports that the title buzz follows Chiranjeevi's film being named Kaaka, leading fans to see Daada as a matching strong title. The title may be unveiled during the Dasara festival in October. The film is also referred to as NBK111 as the production number. ## Indian Opinion Analysis Both sources report the same unconfirmed title buzz for NBK111, but 123telugu.com frames it as a straightforward update about a shoot break and a potential title, while greatandhra.com leads with the Chiranjeevi connection, making the story about fan speculation comparing 'Kaaka' to 'Daada'.
