A Glimpse into Fauji

Among these, Fauji, directed by Hanu Raghavapudi, has become the talk of the town. Set against the pre-Independence era, the film features Prabhas in the role of a valiant soldier. The narrative promises a compelling mix of patriotism, sacrifice, and raw emotion. The shooting is progressing rapidly, with grand sets and elaborate sequences enhancing the period backdrop.

Reports Hint at an Unexpected Prequel

Amid the building excitement for Fauji, latest reports suggest that a prequel to the period drama may also be in development. While sequels are common in big-budget franchises, the idea of a prequel adds a refreshing twist to the cinematic universe Hanu Raghavapudi is creating.

If these reports turn out to be true, fans can look forward to exploring the origins of Prabhas’ soldier character - a concept that could add significant depth to the storyline.

Shooting Update and Release Plans

According to reports, nearly 40% of Fauji’s shoot remains, and the makers are aiming for an August 2026 release. The film stars social media sensation Imanvi as the female lead, while veteran Bollywood icon Mithun Chakraborty plays a pivotal role.

The big-ticket entertainer is being produced by Mythri Movie Makers, known for backing some of Telugu cinema’s grandest ventures.
