Telugu actor Chiranjeevi is preparing for several upcoming film releases. KVN Productions announced the title and first glimpse for ‘Kaaka’, an action entertainer directed by Bobby Kolli. The film, scheduled for a worldwide release on January 13, 2027, during the Sankranthi festival, introduces Chiranjeevi as a character who was previously identified as K. Satyam, a supervisor at Ammaji Aqua Industries in Ravulapalem. However, during a recent event, the actor revealed that he will play a character named Kadiri Kalidas.

A teaser depicts a character shift from a middle-class worker to a more intense persona after a cache of weapons is discovered via an electromagnet. The film is described as a high-intensity action movie that incorporates emotional and family-oriented narrative elements. The cast includes Anaswara Rajan, Nivetha Pethuraj, Sunil, Getup Srinu, and potentially Sneha, who is expected to portray Chiranjeevi’s wife. Technical staff include music composer Thaman S and editor Antony Ruben. This project marks the second collaboration between Chiranjeevi and Bobby Kolli.

Despite social media speculation regarding potential delays to accommodate the release of Chiranjeevi’s other project, ‘Vishwambhara’, KVN Productions has confirmed that the ‘Kaaka’ release date remains unchanged.

In addition to ‘Kaaka’, Chiranjeevi is set to star in ‘Vishwambhara’, a large-scale socio-fantasy film directed by Vasishtha. This project is expected to utilize extensive visual effects and mythological themes, featuring the actor in a persona wielding a metallic trident.
