The upcoming project marks the actor's collaboration with the production house SLV Cinemas, who are also the makers of The Paradise, featuring Nani.
Taking to X, the production banner dropped a poster of the upcoming film wherein Ravi Teja is seen donning a blue suit and sitting inside an empty aeroplane with his legs placed on top of a seat in front of him. Sharing the poster, the makers wrote in the caption, 'Be seated and fasten your seat belts for MASS MAHARAAJ @RaviTeja_offl's Entertaining Ride with #RT76 A @DirKishoreOffl's bonafide entertainer. Produced by @sudhakarcheruk5 under @SLVCinemasOffl. In Cinemas Sankranthi 2026 Begins with Pooja Ceremony and Muhurtam today."

As soon as the makers dropped the poster of RT76, fans were quick to share their reactions to it. An Instagram user wrote, 'All the best the whole team." Another one commented, 'Mass. Waiting #RT76." One of them shared, 'Waiting for this one."
RT76 will be facing a big clash with South star Thalapathy Vijay's upcoming film Jana Nayagan, set for a grand release on January 9, 2026, as well as Chiranjeevi and Nayanthara's highly anticipated Mega157.
Coming back to Ravi Teja's Mass Jathara, the makers recently announced the new release date of their film. It will now be hitting the theatres on August 27, 2025. It marks the South star's second collaboration with Sreeleela after their successful pairing in Dhamaka.
FYI: Mass Jathara was earlier scheduled to be released in May 2025 but was later postponed to July 2025. However, to avoid a clash with Chiranjeevi's Vishwambhara, the makers decided to push back the release date to August 2025.

Director Basil Joseph dismisses rumours of Allu Arjun replacing Ranveer Singh as Shaktimaan in film reboot: ‘Whoever is spreading these…'

For late millennials and early Gen Zers, the Hindi superhero television series Shaktimaan is not just a fond memory but a defining part of their childhood. So, when reports emerged that a film adaptation of Shaktimaan was in the works, the child in every now-adult fan was ecstatic. However, since then, the project has mostly made headlines for the wrong reasons, particularly due to heavy-handed statements from the TV show's creator Mukesh Khanna. Although rumours have been rife that Minnal Murali director and Malayalam actor Basil Joseph would helm the project, with Bollywood star Ranveer Singh in the titular role, Mukesh Khanna has firmly denied the latter part time and again, stating that Ranveer 'doesn't have the correct face' for the character. Recently, another rumour surfaced suggesting that Telugu superstar Allu Arjun had replaced Ranveer Singh in the upcoming film reboot. Interestingly, Mukesh had once acknowledged that Arjun 'has it in him to be Shaktimaan'. While Arjun's fans were thrilled by the speculation, Basil Joseph has categorically denied the reports, reiterating that Ranveer Singh remains the only choice for the character. 'Shaktimaan will be made only with Ranveer Singh,' senior film journalist Subhash K Jha quoted Basil as saying. A source close to the project echoed this sentiment and told Jha, 'No one else is doing Shaktimaan. It is Ranveer Singh and no one else. Whoever is spreading rumours of his replacement clearly has their own agenda.' Now, it needs to be seen what Mukesh Khanna's response to this would be, particularly since he has repeatedly asserted that Ranveer Singh is not suited for the role. 'People know that Ranveer Singh came to convince me for allowing him to reprise the role of Shaktiman. I can't hide it also because later people said that I lauded Ranveer and called him a terrific actor. News of Ranveer being confirmed to play Shaktiman started coming but I hadn't agreed to it. I also have a conflict with Sony and I had put up a video clarifying that I haven't approved Ranveer to play the role and the reason is that…Ranveer sat in front of me that day for 3 hours but ultimately I had to tell him that what needs to be seen on his face wasn't there. He looks playful, like someone who would trick others,' he told Bollywood Thikana in September last year. However, his repeated comments sparked controversy, prompting Mukesh to clarify that he meant no disrespect towards Ranveer. At a press conference, when asked whether he made Ranveer wait at his office for hours, the Shaktimaan actor responded, 'No. I didn't force him to wait. He sat for three hours because he wanted to. He came to my office, we enjoyed each other's company. He's a terrific actor, he has terrific energy. But I decide who plays Shaktimaan. Producers cast actors, an actor can't cast a producer. You come to my office and say that you want to be Shaktimaan, it's not allowed!'

Also, let me go out on a limb and say that he has it in him to be Shaktimaan. I am not saying he is doing it or anything. I'm just suggesting that it would look good on him. He has the personality to pull it off.'
