After Raja Saab Debacle, Kartik Aaryan Dares Prabhas?

Kartik Aaryan’s upcoming lineup includes several notable projects, with Dharma Production’s Naagzilla drawing early attention. The supernatural comedy is scheduled for release on August 14. The film’s shoot is expected to wrap up by the end of February.

Kartik Aaryan is currently filming the penultimate schedule in Mumbai. The final leg of shooting is planned in Delhi in February. If production stays on track, the makers are likely to stick to the announced release date.

Naagzilla features Kartik Aaryan as an Ichadaar Naag and presents him in a completely new avatar. The film aims to blend fantasy and humour while expanding his on-screen image beyond recent roles.

However, the project faces uncertainty after the poor response to his recent Christmas release. Controversy surrounding his alleged relationship with a minor has also affected public perception. These factors may impact audience interest despite ongoing promotions.

If the buzz holds, Naagzilla could face a major box office clash. The film may release alongside Prabhas’ Fauzi and Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s Love and War during the Independence Day weekend.

Love and War, starring Ranbir Kapoor, Alia Bhatt, and Vicky Kaushal, is expected to shift dates. Prabhas’ Fauzi is still aiming for an Independence Day release. This keeps the possibility of a direct clash alive.

Prabhas is seeking a strong comeback after The Raja Saab faced a box office crash. A head-to-head clash would put pressure on Kartik Aaryan’s Naagzilla. Any change in release plans will become clear in the coming weeks.
