Chiranjeevi’s Acharya to be released in cinemas worldwide on 4 February 2022

The makers of Chiranjeevi’s upcoming Telugu film Acharya (2022), which also stars Ram Charan, have confirmed that it will be released in cinemas worldwide on 4 February 2022. The film marks the maiden collaboration between director Siva Koratala and Chiranjeevi. 

Chiranjeevi took to Twitter to announce the release date and unveil a new poster on Saturday. He wrote: “Acharya arrives on 4th Feb, 2022 (sic).”

In Koratala Siva’s film, Chiranjeevi is rumoured to have played dual roles.

Acharya, as per reports, will be about a middle-aged Naxalite-turned-social reformer who launches a fight against government functionaries over misappropriation and embezzlement of temple funds and donations.

The film originally was supposed to mark Trisha’s return to Telugu filmdom after many years. However, she opted out of the project due to creative differences. She was eventually replaced by Kajal Aggarwal. The film also stars Pooja Hegde. 

Chiranjeevi is currently shooting for the Telugu film Godfather; a remake of the Malayalam film Lucifer (2019).
