Bollywood 2027 Release Calendar: Month by Month
January 2027
Love & War (January 21, 2027) Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s magnum opus reunites Ranbir Kapoor and Alia Bhatt on screen for the first time, alongside Vicky Kaushal, in a period drama produced under Bhansali Productions. Given Bhansali’s track record with films like Padmaavat and Gangubai Kathiawadi, this is one of the most anticipated Bollywood releases of the decade.
The Pride of Bharat – Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj (January 21, 2027) Directed by Sandeep Singh, this historical drama stars Rishab Shetty as the Maratha warrior king Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj, with Arjun Rampal, Shefali Shah, and Zanai Bhosle in key roles. The film releases under Legend Studios and Immerso Studios and will go head-to-head with Love & War on the same weekend.
February 2027
Naagzilla (February 12, 2027) Kartik Aaryan headlines this quirky supernatural adventure directed by Mrighdeep Singh Lamba, produced by Dharma Productions and Mahaveer Jain Films. The film blends fantasy and comedy as Aaryan plays an “ichchhadhari naag” (shape-shifting serpent) in a modern setting.
Hone De Tera (February 14, 2027) A Valentine’s Day release directed by the duo Jenny & Dipayan, starring newcomers Arsh and Shagun Singh under Human Being Studios.
March 2027
#SVC63 (March 5, 2027) A high-octane action entertainer directed by Vamshi Paidipally, bringing together Salman Khan, Nayanthara, and Anil Kapoor under Sri Venkateswara Creations — one of the biggest pan-India casting coups of the year.
Force 3 (March 19, 2027) John Abraham returns to his action franchise roots with Force 3, directed by Bhav Dhulia and co-starring Harshvardhan Rane and Tanya Maniktala.
August 2027
Captain India (August 13, 2027) Directed by Shimit Amin (Chak De! India), Kartik Aaryan headlines this patriotic action drama produced by T-Series Films, Baweja Studios, and Midnight Chai Films — marking Aaryan’s second major solo lead of 2027 after Naagzilla.
October 2027
Ramayana: Part 2 (October 29, 2027) The sequel to Nitesh Tiwari’s ambitious mythological epic Ramayana, this installment continues the story with Ranbir Kapoor as Lord Rama and Yash as Raavana, alongside Sai Pallavi, Ravi Dubey, and Sunny Deol. Backed by Prime Focus Studios and Monster Mind Creations, Ramayana: Part 2 is expected to be among the highest-grossing Indian films ever, following the massive scale of Part 1.
December 2027
Tumbbad 2 (December 3, 2027) The sequel to the cult horror-folklore hit Tumbbad (2018), directed by Adesh Prasad and starring Sohum Shah and Nawazuddin Siddiqui, produced by Sohum Shah Films and Pen Studios.
Other Anticipated Bollywood Titles Expected in 2027
While not all have locked release dates, several major projects are widely expected to arrive in 2027, including:
- Pathaan 2 – The sequel to Shah Rukh Khan’s 2023 blockbuster, part of YRF’s spy universe.
- Tiger vs Pathaan – A crossover event film uniting YRF’s Spy Universe franchises.
- Animal Park – The next chapter following Ranbir Kapoor’s Animal (2023).
Studios frequently shift dates closer to release, so these should be treated as “expected” rather than confirmed until an official announcement.
Why 2027 Is a Landmark Year for Bollywood
2027 stands out for three reasons:
- Star power collisions — Ranbir Kapoor appears in two of the year’s biggest films (Love & War and Ramayana: Part 2), while Kartik Aaryan headlines two solo tentpoles (Naagzilla and Captain India).
- Genre diversity — The slate spans period romance, mythology, horror-folklore, action franchises, and patriotic dramas, signaling Bollywood’s push beyond formulaic content post-pandemic.
- Franchise continuity — Sequels like Ramayana: Part 2, Tumbbad 2, Force 3, and expected titles like Pathaan 2 show studios doubling down on proven IP.
