Nani shared a new poster of the film on his X account with the caption, “A for ARJUN SARKAAR. CERTIFIED. #HIT3 #HIT3FromMay1st” The poster saw the actor standing with blood-soaked clothes, with a giant A spread across him.

No changes to the film have reportedly been suggested. The film is set for a May 1 release. HIT 3 tells the story of a ruthless cop called Arjun Sarkar who goes on a rampage to save a 9-month-old baby. The film is a follow-up to Sailesh’s HIT: The First Case (2020) with Vishwak Sen and HIT: The Second Case (2022) with Adivi Sesh.

Nani has also shared that he does not want to label HIT 3 as a ‘pan-Indian’ film like Pushpa or KGF. In an interview with Varinder Chawla, Nani said, “I do not look at this as a pan-India film. But a pan-Indian films are I think what we have seen before- KGF, Baahubali, RRR, Pushpa, films which are anticipated eagerly across the country. They do stage it like that. Of course, pan-India is a word termed by media. But I don't want to get into that space. Right now I am trying to release my film here and make sure that whoever is watching my film… there's a lot of interest for HIT. So whoever wants to watch the film will have a quality product with a nice dubbing, in a nearby theatre, it should be available.”
