Teja Sajja's ‘Mirai' teaser wows with mythical scale and stunning visuals
Superstar Teja Sajja, who rose to pan-India fame with HanuMan, is back with a far grander venture — Mirai. Produced by People Media Factory and directed by Karthik Gattamaneni, the teaser launched today has left audiences nationwide spellbound with its epic visuals, mytho-fantasy world, and gripping storyline.
The teaser opens with a prophetic voice announcing the birth of a destructive force in the Kali Yug era. Enter The Black Sword (Manoj Manchu), a dark antihero wielding deadly powers, set on a path of annihilation. But when gods don't intervene, their weapon—Mirai—steps in. Teja plays an unlikely warrior, clutching a mystical wand and uncovering his destiny in a clash of light and darkness. This fresh, never-before-seen narrative promises an exhilarating ride.
Teja Sajja, acclaimed as India's youngest Pan-India star, impresses with his powerful performance and high-risk stunts — including a jaw-dropping sequence atop a moving train. Manoj Manchu's intense portrayal as the menacing villain adds thrilling tension. The teaser also hints at strong performances from Ritika Nayak, Shriya Saran, Jayaram, and Jagapathi Babu.
Director Karthik Gattamaneni's vision combines epic storytelling with breathtaking visuals and meticulous character design. His cinematography and Gowra Hari's energetic score elevate Mirai to a spectacular experience. The teaser's striking final scene of monkeys bowing to Lord Ram delivers goosebumps.
Produced by the makers of Karthikeya 2 and Jaat, Mirai is a bold Pan-India project made on a controlled budget yet matching the scale of hundred-crore productions. Set for a global release in eight languages on September 5, in 2D and 3D, Mirai is poised to redefine Indian mytho-fantasy cinema.

Kamal Haasan's Thug Life expected to suffer up to ₹40 crore loss at box office following Karnataka release uncertainty
Kamal Haasan and Mani Ratnam's Thug Life finally released on Thursday, bracing chaos and controveries. The film is now being screened across India except for Karnataka over Kamal's controversial Tamil-Kannada remark. While the film is set to register a good start at the box office, undeniably it will suffer due to its ban in Karnataka. According to a report of The Hindu, Thug Life might see a hefty loss of up to ₹ 40 crore as its Karnataka release is in limbo. Producer and distributor G Dhananjayan shared with the outlet that the Kamal Haasan film will miss out on about ₹ 35-40 crore gross at the box office and ₹ 12-15 crore share to producers share for the Karnataka blockage. The assumed loss was calculated based on the performance of previous hit pan-India releases like Pushpa 2, Baahubali 2, RRR, and Kalki 2898 AD, which earned around ₹ 74-104 crore of over ₹ 1,000 crore worldwide revenue, from the Karnataka circuit. Dhananjayan said, "With the four Telugu films grossing a total of ₹ 5832 crore, the Karnataka box office revenue alone amounts to ₹ 391.20 crore, while the north Indian market accounts for ₹ 2361.60 crore. The Karnataka market accounts for around 7% of the total revenue.' Other high-grossing Tamil films like Jailer, Leo, Ponniyin Selvan, The GOAT, and Vikram also registered a major amount from Karnataka, which plays a crucial role in the South film business. 'For Tamil films too, the Karnataka market accounts for 7% of the total revenue,' he added. Thug Life is a gangster action drama film. It is directed by Mani Ratnam and co-written by Kamal Haasan, who is also producing the film under his banner Raaj Kamal Films International, alongside Madras Talkies and Red Giant Movies. Besides Kamal in the lead, it also stars Silambarasan, Trisha Krishnan, Abhirami, Aishwarya Lekshmi, Ashok Selvan, Joju George, Nassar, Ali Fazal, Rohit Saraf and Baburaj. The film marks the reunion of Haasan and Ratnam after their 1987 film, Nayakan. The film landed in the middle of a controversy after Kamal Haasan said, "Kannada was born out of Tamil' during a film event. After the film's release in Karnataka was opposed by the film body, Kamal moved to the High Court.
