Ghaati trailer: Anushka Sharma looks fierce in much-delayed star vehicle

Ghaati trailer: Anushka Sharma has been selective with her film choices following her career-defining role in SS Rajamouli's Baahubali franchise. She typically takes on one project a year, maintaining a low profile and preserving the mystique that surrounds her stardom. Now, after a brief hiatus, Anushka returns with Ghaati, a fierce action epic that has languished in post-production for over a year. Judging by the trailer released today, the film, directed by Krish Jagarlamudi, appears to be a perfect star vehicle for Anushka, boasting an epic scale and immersive, gritty world-building. Ghaati is an action-adventure set against the rugged backdrop of the Eastern Ghats, centering on a community's rebellion against colonizers and a sprawling drug trafficking empire. The trailer offers a glimpse into the journey of two cannabis couriers who rise up against a powerful drug mafia tightening its grip on the region. It hints at Anushka Sharma's character, alongside Vikram Prabhu, leading the charge in this fierce uprising against their oppressors. Ghaati appears to be a violent spectacle packed with intense action and gore. Anushka Shetty is seen in brutal action sequences, with the trailer showcasing flashes of her volatile, larger-than-life screen presence. The film seems tailor-made for the actor to flex her superstar persona, balancing gritty combat with moments of romantic charm opposite Vikram Prabhu.

The film features cinematography by Manojh Reddy Katasani, editing by Chanakya Reddy Toorupu, and music by Nagavelli Vidya Sagar. Produced by Yeduguru Rajeev Reddy and Saibabu Jagarlamudi, the movie hits screens on September 5, 2025.

" He went on to attach tweets of film critics, who had praised the film after the press screening in Mumbai on July 9. The producer also posted tweets of articles predicting the film's performance at the box office and the craze for the film among audiences. It may be recalled that Baahubali: The Beginning, the first of a two-part franchise directed by S S Rajamouli and featuring actors Prabhas, Rana Daggubatti, Anushka Shetty and Tamannaah in the lead, released on July 10, 2015. The film smashed box office records to emerge a huge blockbuster. It was producer Shobu Yarlagadda, who, in an earlier tweet, was the first to drop hints about the movie's re-release in October this year. "I am thrilled to inform you all that we are planning an Indian and international re-release of @BaahubaliMovie in October this year. It won't just be a re-release, it will be a year of celebration for our beloved fans! Expect nostalgia, new reveals, and a few epic surprises along the way. Stay tuned! #ReliveTheEpic! #BaahubaliReturns," he had said. 'Baahubali 2', the second instalment of the immensely popular Baahubali franchise, released in over 9,000 screens worldwide in 2017. The film, which was made on a lavish budget of Rs 250 crore, raked in over a whopping ₹1800 crores worldwide, thereby becoming the highest grossing Indian film of all time. It also has the distinction of being the first Indian film to cross the Rs 1000 crore mark in terms of collections. As of 2025, Baahubali 2 remains the highest grossing film in India. The film, apart from emerging an emphatic global success at the box office, also won widespread critical acclaim. It won awards, both at the National and international levels. The film, which won three National Awards -- For Best Stunt Choreography, Best Special Effects and Best Popular Film Providing Wholesome Entertainment -- at the 65th National Film Awards, also won the Saturn Award for Best International Film at the 44th Saturn Awards.
