Following the record-breaking success of ' Pushpa 2 ,' Allu Arjun has cemented his place as a pan-India superstar. With his magnetic screen presence, stylish persona, and mass appeal, he has fans across the country eagerly awaiting his next move. That curiosity has intensified as Arjun teams up with 'Jawan' director Atlee for a grand new project tentatively titled ' A22xA6 .' The collaboration between these two powerhouses has already sparked major buzz, promising a film unlike any other.

A mega budget and star-studded speculation

The project is said to be one of the costliest Indian films ever, with a jaw-dropping budget of ₹600–700 crore. Whispers about the cast have been making the rounds, with names like Janhvi Kapoor and Ananya Panday reportedly in talks for key roles. While no official confirmations have been made, the speculation has only heightened anticipation. This mega-scale production aims to blend mass entertainment with never-before-seen visuals and storytelling.

Triple roles and a first-of-its-kind twist

In a groundbreaking move, Allu Arjun will take on not one, but three distinct characters in the film. According to Siasat, he will reportedly play a hero, a villain, and, most astonishingly, a full-length animated role, marking the first time an Indian actor has done so in a feature film. To pull this off convincingly, Atlee has roped in top international VFX specialists, while Arjun is undergoing intense preparation to differentiate each character with unique styling, body language, and performance.

Sci-Fi, time travel, and a cinematic leap

Described as a high-octane sci-fi thriller, the film will reportedly explore themes of time travel with strong emotional undertones and world-class action sequences. The visuals are expected to match Hollywood standards, promising a cinematic experience at an unprecedented level. Shooting is set to commence this summer, with a tentative release planned for 2026 or early 2027, depending on production timelines.
