First look poster of Prabhas' next movie
The much-anticipated first-look poster of Telugu superstar Prabhas' upcoming film with director Hanu Raghavapudi was unveiled on Saturday. The movie is a period drama set in British-occupied India. The poster features the parliament building, seemingly under attack, with the British flag caught on fire. "When wars were a battle for supremacy, ONE WARRIOR redefined what they were FOUGHT for," tweeted the producers while sharing the poster.
The untitled project will star social media sensation Iman Esmail, known for her dance videos, as the female lead. It also features seasoned stars such as Jaya Prada and Mithun Chakraborty. Composer Vishal Chandrashekhar will handle the score, cinematographer Sudeep Chatterjee will oversee the visuals, and veteran stunt director Kamala Kannan will choreograph the action sequences.

This project, marking the first collaboration between Prabhas and Hanu Raghavapudi, officially began production on Saturday following a customary puja ceremony.
Hanu Raghavapudi scored a huge hit and widespread acclaim for his 2022 hit Sita Ramam. Expressing his enthusiasm, Hanu shared on social media, "The DAWN of an Epic Saga Of War, Justice, and Beyond. Looking forward to having all the love & support as always. Thankful to Rebelstar #Prabhas Garu & @MythriOfficial. #PrabhasHanu begins. To another magical film and a memorable journey with the most special people."
At the launch event, Prabhas, dressed in a black shirt, looked thrilled about the new venture. The event was also attended by director Prashanth Neel, who helmed Prabhas' previous blockbuster Salaar: Part 1 – Ceasefire. Although Prashanth was expected to begin production on Salaar 2 next, he has put the project on hold to focus on his new movie with Jr NTR.
The film, temporarily titled #PrabhasHanu, is being produced by Mythri Movie Makers, which is also backing Prashanth Neel's upcoming project with Jr NTR. With such a powerhouse of talent involved, expectations are high for this new collaboration between Prabhas and Hanu Raghavapudi, setting the stage for what promises to be a cinematic spectacle.
