A warrior flanked by a bull and a tiger has set the internet alight. The Vvaan motion poster, starring Sidharth Malhotra and Tamannaah Bhatia, roared onto timelines today, sparking instant buzz and a fire-emoji nod from Kiara Advani. The theatrical release is locked for September 25, 2026.
The image that lit up timelines
The overhead shot is deceptively simple: a central, warrior-like figure, a circling tiger, and Nandi. It screams folklore, danger and destiny, while keeping the plot tightly under wraps. The vibe is folk mythological thriller, with a bold, big-screen swagger.
The new visual does more than tease tone. It expands the film’s visual identity, signaling expansive world-building and a nature-charged narrative space. Expect fantasy and action meeting folklore, with mystery as the glue holding it together.
Fans and friends weigh in
Reactions flew in the second Sidharth hit share. Kiara Advani dropped a fire emoji. Comments raced from hype to devotion: ‘All the best see you at cinemas on 25th September’ and ‘Comeback loading Har Har Mahadev.’
The frenzy did not stop there. ‘We will be seated FDFS for VVAN in cinemas on 25th September,’ wrote one fan. Others called the concept ‘magical’ and the poster ‘so epic overall, super excited.’ The internet verdict: intrigue achieved.
Sidharth’s caption teases the core
Sidharth framed the reveal with a line that doubled down on the mythic mood: ‘Baagh uski dahaad hai… Nandi uski shakti. Aur Vvaan… uski kahaani.’ Power, devotion and destiny are all in play.
Release date, title and positioning
The makers confirmed the big-screen arrival: The VVAAN: Force Of The Forrest reaches cinemas on September 25, 2026. After months of secrecy, the campaign finally has a clock.
If you need the essentials at a glance, here they are:
– Release date: September 25, 2026
– Leads: Sidharth Malhotra and Tamannaah Bhatia
– Visual tease: warrior, tiger and Nandi
– Tone: folklore, fantasy and action blend
– First announcement: Chhath Puja, November 2024
The team and scale behind the vision
Behind the curtain is a heavyweight setup. The film is presented by Balaji Motion Pictures, TVF Motion Pictures and 11:11 Productions. It is backed by Shobha Kapoor, Ektaa R Kapoor, Arunabh Kumar and Kothari, with Vimal Doshi as co-producer.
Deepak Mishra directs, with visual direction by Chaayaankan. The collaborators are openly chasing spectacle, promising cutting-edge visual effects and an immersive forest-forward canvas that feels both rooted and grand.
The cast list goes beyond the leads. Sunil Grover, Maniesh Paul, Shweta Tiwari and Anup Soni feature in important roles. Expect character-driven beats stitched into large-format set-pieces and myth-inspired stakes.
From first tease to full-blown momentum
The Vvaan first turned heads during Chhath Puja in November 2024 with an intriguing motion poster. Since then, updates have been minimal, turning every drop into an event. Today’s reveal ups the tempo and finally nails the date to the calendar.
That scarcity has worked. Anticipation has grown, and the latest poster fuels fresh speculation without giving the game away. With the countdown on for September 2026, fans are primed for the next reveal, and the makers know they have their attention.
