Megastar Chiranjeevi’s upcoming action entertainer #Mega158, directed by Bobby Kolli, is progressing at a brisk pace, with the team reportedly completing nearly half of the shoot.
On the occasion of Chiranjeevi’s birthday, the makers unveiled the film’s title through a special glimpse.
The video begins on a simple note, introducing Chiranjeevi as K. Satyam, a supervisor working in an aqua industry setup. He is seen interacting naturally with his colleagues and handling routine work issues.
A casual conversation about his daughter’s scooter keys soon takes an unexpected turn when the keys fall into the water. They are retrieved using a remote-controlled mechanism and a magnet, but the real surprise comes when guns also emerge along with them.
That moment changes the mood of the glimpse.
Chiranjeevi is first presented in a middle-aged look with glasses, following which the title Kaaka is revealed.
The glimpse then shifts to a younger and more stylish version of Chiranjeevi, ending with a gun-firing sequence that brings in the film’s mass flavour.
The contrast between the two looks is one of the main highlights. The older version appears grounded and relatable, while the younger Chiranjeevi carries more style, confidence and aggression.
Director Bobby Kolli has given both avatars different energies, making the glimpse visually interesting.
Vijay Karthik Kannan’s cinematography adds depth to the presentation, while S. Thaman’s background score lifts the action portions. The remix of the popular Gang Gang song from Gang Leader also adds a nostalgic touch.
The production values from Venkat K. Narayana’s KVN Productions are impressive.
Chiranjeevi remains the main attraction throughout the glimpse. From the natural conversations in the opening portions to the stylish younger avatar, he carries both shades with ease.
Anaswara Rajan plays an important role in the film, while the glimpse also introduces characters played by Sunil and Getup Srinu.
More than just revealing the title, the glimpse sets up the film’s world, presents two different shades of Chiranjeevi’s character and creates curiosity about how both are connected.
Kaaka is scheduled for a worldwide theatrical release on January 13, 2027, during the Sankranthi season.
