Hyderabad, April 8 – One of the most talked about collaborations of the Indian cinema between Pan India superstar Allu Arjun and director Atlee has officially been announced on the actor’s 43rd birthday today, with the behind-the-scenes footage of the team meeting.

The film will be produced by Kalanithi Maran of Sun Pictures, and it will involve artists from India and Hollywood. The announcement video of the film, tentatively titled AA22xA6, shows Allu Arjun along with director Atlee and producer Maran meeting at Sun Pictures’ office in Chennai, where they discussed the project.

The video then shows the trio fly to Los Angeles to visit Lola VFX Studio along with Spectral Motion, Fractured FX, ILM Technoprops, Ironhead Studio, and Legacy Effects to discuss this magnum opus project. Some of the artists of these studios can be heard hailing the vision of the makers and calling the story unbelievable and never heard before.

The BTS footage of the announcement video has raised expectations, and it seems the makers are trying to create something the Indian audience has never seen before. It promises to be a visual spectacle, a highly ambitious mega-budget VFX-heavy sci-fi film, set in a parallel universe.

Speaking about the movie, Atlee said, “This is the film I have always dreamed of making, and it’s taken years of quiet work to shape the screenplay into something I truly believe in. To now bring it to life with the Icon Star #AlluArjun Sir, under the visionary leadership of Kalanithi Maran Sir, is nothing short of a dream come true. The film is mass at its core and magical in its storytelling, crafted to move and entertain audiences worldwide”.

The pre-production work of AA22xA6 will begin this month, and the movie will go on floors by around August/September this year for a 2026/2027 release worldwide in multiple languages.
