Mumbai: Filmmaker Prashanth Neel’s upcoming underworld action thriller Salaar , featuring South star Prabhas, is set to release theatrically on April 14, 2022. Billed as a pan-India project, Salaar is produced by Hombale Films.
Neel, known for helming the blockbuster action movie franchise “KGF”, took to Twitter and shared the film’s poster with the release date.
“Rebelling worldwide. #Salaar on April 14, 2022. We can’t wait to celebrate with you all,” the director wrote.
The film will see the “Baahubali” star play a “violent character”.
When the project was announced in December last year, Prabhas had called “Salaar” a territory unexplored.
“This is a very exciting film and my character is extremely violent, so this is something I haven”t really done before. It’s a pan-Indian film and I can’t wait to be on the sets already,” the 41-year-old actor had said.
Apart from “Salaar”, Prabhas will also be seen in filmmaker Nag Ashwin’s multilingual sci-fi film co-starring Deepika Padukone, Om Raut’s screen adaptation of the epic Ramayana “Adipurush” and romantic-drama “Radhe Shyam”, directed by Radha Krishna Kumar.
Also starring Pooja Hegde, “Radhe Shyam” is set to release on July 30, this year.
