In January this year, Lokesh and Arjun made the official announcement that they’re teaming up for a film after weeks of rumours. Producers Mythri Movie Makers wrote: “A Collaboration that will be Eternal in Indian Cinema. Icon Star @alluarjun X @Dir_Lokesh X @MythriOfficial X @anirudhofficial STRIVE FOR GREATNESS.” The song in the announcement video, 23, featured lyrics by the mysterious Heisenberg and vocals by Hector Salamanca. The song soon caught on fire on Instagram Reels.
Arjun had also posted the promo video, writing, “I SAY 23. Goin on a spree. Low-Key G. Locked in mentally. That’s a guarantee! Excited about the new journey with the Maverick @lokesh.kanagaraj garu. & at last with brother @anirudhofficial. Can’t wait for this one.” The actor also has a high-budget film with Atlee, titled Raaka. Produced by Sun Pictures, the sci-fi film also stars Deepika Padukone in the lead role. The film was announced in 2025 as Arjun’s first project after the release of the Pushpa films.
Arjun spent five years after the 2020 hit Ala Vaikunthapurramuloo working with Sukumar in Pushpa: The Rise (2021) and Pushpa 2: The Rule (2024). The sequel became one of the highest-grossing films in Indian cinema.
