After a gap of over a decade, Megastar Chiranjeevi made a strong comeback and has been consistently working on films since. His re-entry film, Khaidi No. 150, was a massive hit, but the subsequent releases — Acharya and Godfather — didn’t meet expectations. While Valtheru Veerayya performed well at the box office, Bholaa Shankar left fans disappointed. Following this, Chiranjeevi was absent from the silver screen for almost a year.
Vishwambhar was originally slated to release this year. However, due to its heavy reliance on graphics and the need for some re-shoots, the film has been postponed to Summer 2026. Chiranjeevi also seemed to show limited involvement in the project at certain times.
Meanwhile, his focus shifted to Anil Ravipudi’s upcoming film, which kept him fully engaged. Simultaneously, Manam Sankaravara Prasad, produced by the team for Sankranti, is progressing at a brisk pace. In 2026, Chiranjeevi is set to deliver a hat-trick of films.
First up is Manam Sankaravara Prasad for Sankranti. Following that, Vishwambhar is scheduled for a Summer 2026 release. The shooting for Vishwambhar is already complete, with only minor patchwork pending before its release. The film is directed by Mallidi Vashishta Reddy, who impressed audiences with Bimbisara.
Apart from these two, a third film featuring the Chiranjeevi-Babli combination is also in the works, planned for a Dasara release. Following the super success of Valtheru Veerayya, expectations are high for this collaboration. If the film is not ready by Dasara, the makers plan to release it during Diwali.
Even though Chiranjeevi won’t have any releases in 2025, 2026 promises to more than make up for it with a series of back-to-back releases. Another interesting update is that Chiranjeevi will reunite with director Srikant Odela for a new project, which is also set to go on sets in 2026.
