The business deals for Sankranthi 2027 releases are gathering pace. Megastar Chiranjeevi’s “Kaaka” is among the major films lined up for the festive season, with its shooting progressing at a brisk pace.
Asian Cinemas has bagged the Nizam distribution rights of “Kaaka” for Rs 35 crore. The deal has been closed, with the rights not going to either Mythri Movie Makers or Dil Raju’s SVC.
The Andhra and Ceded rights are also under discussion, with multiple distributors showing interest in acquiring the film at attractive prices. The competition is particularly strong given the other major Sankranthi releases, including the Venkatesh-Kalyan Ram multi-starrer “January 12 Vidudala”.
“Kaaka” is being produced by KVN Productions. Chiranjeevi plays a character named Kadiri Kalidasu, while Anaswara Rajan plays his daughter. Nivetha Pethuraj has a key role, and Anurag Kashyap plays the antagonist. Thaman is composing the music.
Directed by Bobby, “Kaaka” is scheduled to hit theatres on January 13, 2027.
