Last Updated:
Recently, the film's makers released a video officially welcoming Deepika Padukone to the project with a video.
Atlee's next action drama, tentatively titled AA22xA6, has been grabbing headlines for a long time. Allu Arjun, who is the lead actor, is all set to begin prep for his much-awaited collaboration. According to fresh reports, the actor will undergo a look test for AA22xA6 on June 11, kicking off the early stages of what's expected to be a high-octane commercial entertainer. Mid-day has reported the shoot will begin from this Thursday.
Mid-day has quoted a source saying, 'It will be a long eight hour shoot. There is also a special announcement photo shoot planned for tomorrow. This is one of India's biggest productions right now and Atlee wants to do this in the grandest possible way. The shoot begins on Thursday at the same location. The makers have tentatively titled it AA22xA6. They have put together the finest Hollywood technicians on this project. The team has already come to Mumbai. They will start small with some key sequences and then the film will be shot in Mumbai, Hyderabad and several other locations. The details are kept in wraps to avoid further leaks from the set."
Recently, Allu Arjun was spotted at Mumbai airport. Meanwhile, Deepika Padukone teamed up with Atlee yet again after Jawan for tentatively titled AA22xA6. Also starring Allu Arjun in the lead role, the film is touted to be an action-entertainer.
Recently, the film's makers released a video officially welcoming Deepika Padukone to the project with a video. The clip opened with the actress in conversation with director Atlee, going over the script before stepping onto the set to begin prep work. The visuals hint at Deepika stepping into a full-fledged action role in AA22xA6. The caption accompanying the video hailed her as a 'queen" poised to 'conquer," setting the tone for her powerful presence in the film.
Although early rumours suggested the film might have a two-hero storyline, Allu Arjun's team has confirmed that the actor will portray dual roles, adding an extra layer of intrigue to the narrative. The filming is set to begin in mid-2025, with a grand release planned for 2026.
Meanwhile, Allu Arjun was also in the spotlight, after fans trended his name on X (formerly Twitter) following a tragic stampede that broke out outside Bengaluru's Chinnaswamy Stadium after Royal Challengers Bengaluru's (RCB) IPL victory on June 4. RCB captain Virat Kohli's name trended on X (formerly Twitter), after a section of the Internet felt he should be arrested too. The conversation erupted after Allu Arjun's arrested on December 13, 2024, by the Chikkadpally police in Hyderabad in connection with a similar tragic stampede at the premiere of Pushpa 2.
As 'Arrest Virat Kohli' trend continued to soar on X, so did Allu Arjun. The South megastar was in the spotlight after fans rallied for fair treatment for both him and Kohli in connection with similar stampede incidents – just six months apart.
