Synopsis
Key Takeaways
Mumbai, April 15 (NationPress) The upcoming comedy-adventure film ‘Naagzilla’, featuring Kartik Aaryan, is officially scheduled to release in theaters on February 12, 2027. This announcement was made on Wednesday alongside the unveiling of the film's poster. Directed by Mrighdeep Singh Lamba, renowned for his work on the ‘Fukrey’ series, the film was initially slated for an August 4, 2026 release.
Set against the backdrop of Indian mythology, the film explores a fantastical world inhabited by shape-shifting snakes. It is produced by notable figures including Karan Johar, Mahaveer Jain, Adar Poonawalla, Apoorva Mehta, Mrighdeep Singh Lamba, and Neetu M Jain.
Last year in April, Kartik teased fans with a captivating motion poster on his Instagram, portraying him shirtless and peering over a city skyline from within a snake-laden hideout. In his post, he proclaimed, “I’ve witnessed numerous human tales, now prepare for a story of naags. #Naagzilla - Naag lok ka Pehla Kaand... Fun phailaane Aa raha hu main, Preyamvadeshwar Pyare Chand... Naag Panchami par aapke nazdeeki SsSsinemas mein. 4 August 2026 ko.”
On a different note, Kartik has kept a low profile following controversy surrounding alleged chats with a minor on the photo-sharing platform Snapchat. These claims, originating from social media speculation, remain unverified and largely anonymous.
In terms of his recent work, Kartik was last seen in ‘Tu Meri Main Tera Main Tera Tu Meri’, which unfortunately performed poorly at the box office despite a festive Christmas release, opening to modest figures and struggling to gain traction. This was a stark contrast to his earlier hit, ‘Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3’, which saw significant success at the box office.
