In the pictures shared by the team, Chiranjeevi can be seen alongside actresses Anaswara Rajan and Nivetha Pethuraj. The film is expected to be an action-packed entertainer with an emotional core, with Anaswara reportedly playing the role of the Megastar’s daughter. However, no official confirmation has been made yet.
Thaman S has been officially announced as the film’s music composer. Reports also suggest that Coolie actress Rachita Ram is part of the project and is believed to have replaced Honey Rose, who was initially rumoured to be associated with the role.
Chiranjeevi’s work front
Chiranjeevi was last seen in the lead role in Mana Shankara Vara Prasad Garu, directed by Anil Ravipudi. The action-comedy entertainer featured Nayanthara as the female lead, along with an extended cameo appearance by Venkatesh Daggubati.
The film follows Shankara Varaprasad, an officer married to Sasirekha, the daughter of a wealthy businessman. Despite her father’s disapproval, the couple gets married but eventually separates due to ongoing conflicts and misunderstandings.
Six years later, as Varaprasad attempts to mend his fractured relationship and reunite with his family, a past enemy resurfaces and threatens their safety. How he balances his personal struggles with this new danger forms the crux of the story. The film is currently available for streaming on ZEE5.
Moreover, the actor has completed work on his fantasy action entertainer Viswambhara, which is expected to hit the big screens in 2026, although an official release date has yet to be announced.
Looking ahead, Chiranjeevi also has a project lined up with The Paradise director Srikanth Odela.
