This actor will play the role of Chiranjeevi Parashuram in ‘Mahavatara’

With the release of their masterpiece, “Mahavatar,” which will star Vicky Kaushal as the renowned warrior sage Chiranjeevi Parashurama, film producers Dinesh Vijan and Amar Kaushik are poised to lift the standard once again.

Inspired by Indian mythology, the movie will be released in theaters on Christmas 2026.

Vijan and Kaushik have reunited for a much-anticipated project that explores India’s ancient mythology, after the tremendous success of their ‘Stree 2’ collaboration.

In what seems to be a pivotal role for his career, Vicky Kaushal will play Chiranjeevi Parashurama, one of the seven immortal characters in Hindu mythology, in “Mahavatar.”

Vicky Kaushal’s success in movies like “Zara Hatke Zara Bachke” and his next project, “Chhaava,” which is based on the story of Maratha King Sambhaji Maharaj, preceded the announcement of “Mahavatar.”

‘Mahavatar’ debuted on November 13 with a visually arresting poster featuring Vicky Kaushal in the role.

“Dinesh Vijan brings to life the story of the eternal warrior of dharma!” Kaushal stated in his post. In Amar Kaushik’s #Mahavatar, Vicky Kaushal plays Chiranjeevi Parashurama. “Christmas 2026 is coming to theaters!”

One of the seven Chiranjeevis, or eternal creatures, in Hindu mythology, Parashurama, is essential to the plot of the movie.

Respected as a guru and a strong defender of dharma (justice), Parashurama is well-known for his strength, knowledge, and fighting spirit.

In a number of mythical writings, such as the “Mahabharata” and the “Ramayana,” Parashurama is portrayed as Lord Vishnu’s avatar who has been charged with purging the planet of evildoers and preserving morality.

Niren Bhatt wrote the film’s screenplay, which Maddock Films is producing.

“Mahavatar” is scheduled to be released in theaters around Christmas 2026.
