The film is directed by Maruthi and produced by Viswa Prasad under the People Media Factory banner, with music by Thaman S, the film is slated for a theatrical release on April 10, 2025, in five languages: Telugu, Hindi, Tamil, Kannada, and Malayalam.
Meanwhile, Prabhas has also started shooting for the follow-up to his 2023 film ‘Salaar: Part 1 – Ceasefire’.
The film is being helmed by Prashanth Neel, who is known for his work on the blockbuster ‘K.G.F.’ film franchise, and ‘Salaar: Part 1 – Ceasefire’.
The sequel picks up from where the first film left off, diving deeper into the intricate world of power struggles, revenge, and redemption. ‘Salaar: Part 1 – Ceasefire’ which clashed with the Shah Rukh Khan and Taapsee Pannu-starrer ‘Dunki’, followed the story of a fictional dystopian city-state of Khansaar, where monarchy still exists. The friendship between Deva (played by Prabhas), the exiled prince of Khansaar, and Varadha (played by Prithviraj Sukumaran), the current prince of Khansaar forms the crux of the film.
When a coup d’etat is planned by his father’s ministers and his relatives, Varadha enlists Deva’s help to become Khansaar’s undisputed ruler.
