RGV unveils Shraddha Srinath's ‘Kaliyugam 2064' trailer
Directed by debutant Pramodh Sundar and produced by K.S. Ramakrishna under the R.K. International banner, Kaliyugam 2064 is a bilingual venture made in Tamil and Telugu. In Telugu, the film is being presented by Mythri Distribution and is scheduled for a global release on May 9, making it a special summer offering for moviegoers.
The first-look poster, launched by ace filmmaker Mani Ratnam, garnered a positive response, setting the tone for what promises to be a visually rich and intense narrative. Recently, Ram Gopal Varma unveiled the trailer and praised the project, calling it a 'futuristic experience' with captivating visuals, standout performances, and impressive design elements—likening it to reading a modern-day mythological tale.
Cinematographer K. Ramcharan's visual storytelling plays a critical role in creating the gritty, resource-starved world of Kaliyugam 2064, where humanity struggles for survival amidst a lack of food, water, and compassion. Drawing inspiration from mythological elements of the Kaliyugam era, the film blends philosophical depth with cutting-edge sci-fi spectacle, promising a unique cinematic journey.

He described the bond as deeply personal and also hinted at many other films. In an interview with The Hollywood Reporter India, Telugu superstar Prabhas confirmed about more films with Hombale Films. Describing the relationship as 'like a family," Prabhas confirmed, 'We are planning for more films together," hinting at new ventures beyond their current agreements. Prabhas will be next seen in The Raja Saab. The romantic horror comedy directed by Maruthi is releasing on December 5, 2025. This film is being positioned as a lighter outing, showcasing the actor in a fun and entertaining avatar that contrasts with his recent intense roles. He also has an upcoming project with director Hanu Raghavapudi, tentatively titled Fauji, which is believed to revolve around themes of patriotism and drama, though details remain tightly guarded. Beside this, actor Prabhas is gearing up for what is touted to be one of the most ambitious collaborations of his career with filmmaker Sandeep Reddy Vanga in their upcoming film Spirit. Ever since the announcement, the project has generated a buzz across fan circles, with many speculating about its scale, emotional depth, and the actor's transformation for the role. Now, the wait for a major update is over. At a recent event in the United States, Sandeep's brother, Pranay Reddy Vanga, confirmed that the film will officially go on floors in September 2025. Spirit marks the first collaboration between the Baahubali star and the Kabir Singh director, and expectations are already sky-high. According to earlier reports, Sandeep had specifically requested Prabhas to allot bulk dates for the film, as the role will require a complete physical and stylistic overhaul. This level of transformation would make it difficult for the actor to shoot for other films concurrently, prompting Prabhas to wrap up his existing commitments before fully immersing himself into the world of Spirit. Sources close to the project indicate that the makers plan to shoot the film in a single, focused schedule to preserve narrative continuity and character integrity.
