Salman Khan in Monster film look

Salman Khan’s Maatrubhumi has not finalized a release date so far. However, fans are waiting to see him in Dil Raju’s SCV63, directed by Vamshi Paidipally. It features Nayanthara in an important role. As per the latest reports on social media, the movie is titled Monster.

Although an official announcement is awaited, the new report has built some buzz for the upcoming film. At the same time, the reactions to the reported title have been mixed. A few fans are loving it, and others are saying that it could have been better.

A particular section even alleged that the title is inspired by the dialogues of Yash. On the other hand, some supporters of Salman stated that although the title is good, the makers have to present Salman like a monster in the film instead of opting for a routine presentation.

As of now, Dil Raju has recently revealed some details about the movie, stating that it is being made on a scale that has never been attempted in Indian cinema in the past. The producer said that he is already impressed with the rushes that he has seen so far and that the filming is expected to be completed by October 2026.

Fans are specifically happy to know that Salman will appear in multiple forms throughout the film, and it is going to have several mass moments that are going to be received with whistles and claps at the single screens.

While Dil Raju has made big claims, fans are worried since it has happened multiple times over the last few years when similar things were said by other producers and the results turned out to be underwhelming. It is a matter of concern specifically because Salman desperately needs a hit film with good content now.

Some even questioned the choice of taking Vamshi Paidipally as a director. Netizens pointed out that while Vamshi has delivered hits so far, his movies have always depended on outdated themes and the formula works only in South films. Trade experts also pointed out that the same themes cannot work in Bollywood until audiences get to see something fresh.

The release date has been locked for Eid 2027, a festival that has been considered lucky for Salman, except for the last few years. Let’s see if the superstar will be able to win the trust of the audience this time.
