Telugu Times reports that the megastar’s next movie is scheduled to hit theatres during the Sankranti festival in 2027.
Telugu Times has confirmed that veteran actor Chiranjeevi’s forthcoming film is earmarked for a theatrical launch coinciding with the Sankranti celebrations in 2027. The announcement places the project among the most anticipated releases of the upcoming festive season, a period traditionally reserved for high‑profile Telugu cinema.
Sankranti, one of the biggest holiday windows in South India, often sees producers timing big‑budget films to maximize box‑office returns. By aligning the release with this period, the makers aim to capitalize on the heightened audience footfall and the cultural significance of the festival.
While the production house has not disclosed the film’s title, director, or co‑stars, it confirmed that principal photography is underway and that post‑production work will adhere to a schedule that meets the Sankranti deadline. No further details about the storyline or budget have been released.
Industry analysts note that Chiranjeevi’s return to the big screen after a brief hiatus typically generates strong pre‑release buzz, and a Sankranti slot could further amplify ticket sales across Andhra Pradesh, Telangana and the broader Telugu‑speaking diaspora.
Fans are urged to stay tuned to official channels for updates on the film’s promotional campaign, trailer launch dates and additional casting announcements as the release window approaches.
