Originally set to premiere during the Independence Day weekend in 2026, the film will now be released in theatres on February 12, 2027, marking the Valentine’s Day weekend. This information was disclosed by trade analyst Taran Adarsh on social media, where he confirmed the new release timeline.

Film Overview and Production Details

Naagzilla is directed by Mrighdeep Singh Lamba and is described as a creature comedy inspired by Indian folklore. The film features Aaryan in the role of an icchadhari naag, or shapeshifting snake, named Preyamvadeshwar Pyare Chand. This casting represents a significant new direction in Aaryan’s career choices.

The production is a collaboration between Karan Johar’s Dharma Productions and Mahaveer Jain Films.

It has generated interest due to its original concept and the involvement of prominent filmmakers.

Previously, Naagzilla was set to debut on August 14, 2026, coinciding with the Independence Day celebrations in India. The strategic shift to February 2027 allows the film to tap into the romantic sentiment associated with Valentine’s Day, potentially increasing its appeal to audiences. Reports indicate that this change was communicated via a press note from the production team.
