Chiranjeevi’s KAAKA Locks Sankranthi 2027 Release: First Single Out Soon

The wait for Megastar Chiranjeevi’s KAAKA finally has a release date, and the makers have chosen one of the biggest festive windows on the calendar. KVN Productions has officially announced that the much-anticipated action drama will arrive in cinemas worldwide on January 13, 2027, making it a Sankranthi 2027 release. The announcement also puts an end to the speculation surrounding the film’s theatrical arrival, giving fans a date they can now mark on their calendars.

Taking to X, KVN Productions addressed the ongoing buzz directly, writing, “Putting all the speculation to rest, #KAAKA is releasing for Sankranthi 2027.” The production house further confirmed that its highly anticipated collaboration with Chiranjeevi and director Bobby Kolli will release worldwide on January 13. Along with the release date, the makers also teased another update that fans have been waiting for — the first single is coming soon.

The announcement was accompanied by a promotional image featuring Chiranjeevi in his avatar from the film, adding another layer of excitement to the release-date reveal. With Sankranthi being a major theatrical season for Telugu cinema, locking January 13 positions KAAKA for a festive audience eager for a big-screen action entertainer. The first single, which is expected to arrive shortly, will now be the next major promotional milestone for the film.

KAAKA also marks the second collaboration between Chiranjeevi and Bobby Kolli, following their successful outing Waltair Veerayya. Their reunion has naturally been one of the biggest talking points around the project, with Bobby returning to the director’s chair for another action-driven film featuring the veteran superstar. This time, however, the story appears to offer Chiranjeevi a different kind of character journey.

According to the makers, Chiranjeevi plays Satyam, a character caught between two different phases or lives, giving the actor an opportunity to explore a dual-life role. While details about the storyline are being kept under wraps, the combination of an action-drama format and the mysterious nature of Satyam’s character has already created plenty of curiosity. The film is being mounted as a major commercial entertainer, with the makers keeping the larger narrative details close to the chest.

The film is produced by Venkat K Narayana under KVN Productions, which has been steadily building anticipation around the project through carefully timed updates. Rather than flooding audiences with information, the team has allowed Chiranjeevi’s look, the title and now the release date to generate their own buzz. With the first single on the horizon, the promotional campaign is now expected to gather momentum as the Sankranthi release gets closer.

For Chiranjeevi, the January 13 date places KAAKA right in the middle of the festive season, when audiences traditionally look forward to major theatrical releases. The film’s worldwide release also underlines the makers’ ambition to take the action drama beyond its home market and bring Chiranjeevi’s latest big-screen outing to audiences across multiple territories.

For now, one thing is firmly locked: KAAKA will roar into theatres worldwide on January 13, 2027. The speculation is over, Sankranthi has its Megastar release, and with the first single arriving soon, the real promotional countdown is about to begin. Chiranjeevi’s Satyam has a date with the big screen — and January 13 is going to be the day to watch.
