Megastar Chiranjeevi's Upcoming Movies: 'Kaaka' Release Date and 'Vishwambhara' Status

Fans of Megastar చిరంజీవి are currently seeing a contrast in his project pipeline. While his upcoming film Kaaka has a confirmed release window, his high-budget venture Vishwambhara is facing significant uncertainty due to production hurdles.

'Kaaka': Confirmed Sankranthi 2027 Release

Following various rumors about potential delays, the makers of Kaaka have officially confirmed that the film will hit theaters worldwide on January 13, 2027, coinciding with the Sankranthi festival [1]. Directed by Bobby and produced by KVN Productions, the movie is described as a "family action entertainer" focusing on a father-daughter bond [1].

The film features Chiranjeevi in a multi-dimensional role, with Anaswara Rajan playing his daughter and Nivetha Pethuraj in a key role [1]. The production team has also announced that the first single from the movie will be released soon to build momentum for the 2027 release [3].

'Vishwambhara': Production Delays and Speculation

In contrast to the clarity surrounding Kaaka, Vishwambhara remains in a state of suspense. Although filming was completed some time ago, the movie has been stalled primarily due to pending VFX work [2].

Industry reports as of September 2026 suggest that budget constraints at UV Creations may be the root cause of the delay, with claims that the production house is facing financial losses [2]. This instability has led to further speculation:

• Director's Shift: Director Vassishta has reportedly begun working on a project for Nandamuri Mokshagna while Vishwambhara remains on hold [2].
• Cryptic Signals: A recent social media post by Vassishta regarding Lord Shiva has been interpreted by netizens as a sign of the film's uncertain status [2].
• Financial Intervention: Unconfirmed industry rumors suggest that the film may only see a release if Chiranjeevi provides financial intervention to cover the remaining budget [2].
