The Rumored Title: ‘Legacy’

Social media is currently flooded with rumors that the film is titled “Legacy.” While Sun Pictures hasn’t confirmed it yet, the pre-look poster—featuring a mysterious, massive clawed hand against a stormy, smoky sky—suggests an epic fantasy or sci-fi theme.

Why This is the Biggest Film of 2027

This isn’t just another action movie; Atlee is reportedly creating a “Parallel Universe” story that spans multiple timelines.

  • Sci-Fi Spectacle: The film is being compared to the scale of the Avatar franchise, using heavy VFX and Hollywood technicians.
  • Allu Arjun in 4 Avatars: Rumors suggest Allu Arjun might play four different generations of the same family—a first in his career!
  • Deepika Padukone as a Warrior: Deepika has officially joined the cast and reportedly has a 100-day shooting schedule for a “fierce warrior” role involving high-octane action and CGI horses.

Deepika Padukone in Atlee movie:

 

 

1. The “Fierce Warrior” Avatar

 

Reports indicate that Deepika will portray a powerful warrior in a fantasy or parallel-universe setting. This is a significant departure from her previous roles:

  • Action-Heavy: Concept art and leaked promo visuals show her wielding custom-designed weapons (including a massive axe) and engaging in high-octane combat.
  • CGI Elements: She has reportedly filmed sequences involving a CGI horse, suggesting a grand, mythical, or otherworldly scale for her character.
  • Custom Look: The production team has created a completely original wardrobe and set of weapons specifically for her “warrior” persona.

 

2. Massive 100-Day Commitment

 

To do justice to the scale of the film, Deepika has reportedly allotted approximately 100 shooting days.

  • A large portion of this time is dedicated to complex, large-scale action sequences that require extensive preparation and VFX coordination.
  • This project marks her high-profile return to major action cinema after embracing motherhood, alongside her other upcoming film King with Shah Rukh Khan.

 

3. First On-Screen Pairing with Allu Arjun

 

This film marks the first time Deepika Padukone and Allu Arjun will share the screen. While Allu Arjun is rumored to be playing multiple roles across different timelines, Deepika’s character is expected to be a central pillar of the narrative’s “Parallel Universe” theme

Total Project Budget

 

The total budget for the film is estimated to be between ₹700 crore and ₹800 crore.

  • VFX & Technicals: Approximately ₹260 crore has been allocated solely for high-end visual effects, as the film reportedly explores a “Parallel Universe” with futuristic and sci-fi elements.
  • Production Design: Around ₹250 crore is set aside for the actual physical production, including massive sets and top-tier Hollywood technicians.

 

Star Cast & Crew Remuneration

 

Person Role Estimated Fee
Allu Arjun Lead Actor ₹175 Crore + 15% Profit Share
Atlee Director ₹60 Crore – ₹75 Crore
Deepika Padukone Female Lead ₹12 Crore – ₹15 Crore
Sai Abhyankkar Music Director ₹5 Crore – ₹8 Crore

Allu Arjun’s Record Deal

 

 

Allu Arjun has reportedly signed a deal worth ₹175 crore as his upfront acting fee. This makes him one of the highest-paid actors in India. Additionally, he has secured a 15% stake in the film’s profits, meaning his total earnings could exceed ₹250 crore if the movie becomes a global blockbuster.

Deepika Padukone’s “Warrior” Fee

 

While there were rumors of Deepika charging ₹20 crore, industry insiders suggest her fee is closer to ₹12–15 crore. She has dedicated a massive 100-day schedule to this project, which involves intense physical training for her “fierce warrior” role.

Atlee’s Directorial Hike

 

After the massive success of Jawan (2023), Atlee’s market value has skyrocketed. For this Telugu-Tamil-Hindi trilingual, he is reportedly drawing a salary in the range of ₹60–75 crore, making him one of the most expensive directors in the country.

Why the Budget is So High?

 

 

  1. Multiple Avatars: Allu Arjun is rumored to be playing four distinct roles across different timelines, requiring extensive prosthetic work and separate set designs.
  2. Global Technicians: The production has hired specialized action directors and VFX supervisors from Hollywood to handle the “Parallel Universe” sequences.
  3. Pan-World Vision: Sun Pictures is aiming for a “Pan-World” release in Summer 2027, similar to the strategy used for films like Kalki 2898 AD and RRR.

 

Final Verdict

 

With a massive budget and a “Pan-World” vision, AA22xA6 is aiming to shatter every box office record. After the success of Pushpa 2 and Jawan, the combination of Allu Arjun and Atlee is truly a match made in cinematic heaven.
