Rakesh Roshan Confirms Krrish 4 Release in 2027
Bollywood finally has news that superhero fans have been waiting for. After years of speculation and countless rumors, filmmaker Rakesh Roshan has confirmed that Krrish 4 will hit theatres in 2027, with the shooting planned to start next year. Fans of Hrithik Roshan have been thrilled by this news, which has also rekindled interest in one of India‘s most cherished movie franchises.

The Krrish series has always been more than just movies. For many Indians, it was their first proper superhero experience on the big screen. With this official statement, curiosity about the film’s scale, story, and production is only going to grow further.
The Legacy of Krrish
The foundation of this franchise goes back to 2003 with Koi… Mil Gaya. Rohit Mehra and the endearing extraterrestrial Jadoo, who quickly became a favorite, were introduced in the movie. What began as a story about friendship and science quickly evolved into something bigger.
In 2006, Krrish gave Indian cinema its own caped superhero. Hrithik Roshan’s portrayal of Krishna fascinated younger audiences while also winning over families. Later, in 2013, Krrish 3 tried to expand the universe with supervillains and more advanced special effects. The movie went on to become a massive hit despite mixed reviews, showing the potential of homegrown superhero films.
Now, after a decade, the franchise is preparing to return, and expectations couldn’t be higher.
Official Confirmation from Rakesh Roshan
In a recent interview, Rakesh Roshan announced that the release date for Krrish 4 is set for 2027. However, production will kick off in 2026. He pointed out that the sheer scale of the film demands extensive planning and time, especially with the heavy dependence on visual effects and action sequences.
According to him, while action and grandeur are a must for a superhero movie, the team is also making sure the story has heart—which has always been the core strength of the Krrish series.
Why Wait So Long?
Although it’s normal for fans to be impatient, there are a number of reasons why the 2027 wait is warranted:
Modern visual effects, which require more time to develop and perfect, will be used in the movie. In order for the film to appeal to a worldwide audience, the producers must guarantee top-notch production quality. Extra preparation time is required for high-budget action, multi-location filming, and extensive planning.
What Krrish 4 Fans Can Anticipate
On social media, the announcement has already sparked countless conversations. Audiences are hoping to see the following:
Return of Jadoo: A lot of fans think that the alien who initiated everything could return.
New antagonists: The standard is high for the next antagonist after Vivek Oberoi‘s Kaal in Krrish 3.
Exciting action: Since Marvel and DC dominate the superhero genre, audiences anticipate stunts and scenes that are up to par with global norms.
Emotional storytelling: The franchise’s heart has always been the touching father-son plot in earlier movies, even above the action. Supporters want the same level of emotional nuance to be maintained.
Hrithik Roshan Takes the Lead Again
Without Hrithik Roshan, Krrish would not be the same. The success of the franchise has largely been attributed to his ability to strike a balance between intense action and emotions. Hrithik has expressed excitement for the project, and he is the ideal choice to revive India’s superhero because of his unparalleled on-screen persona.
We can anticipate that he will set the standard even higher in Krrish 4 given his commitment to physical fitness and transformation for previous roles.
Why 2027 Will Be Historic
By the time Krrish 4 releases, it will mark nearly 14 years since Krrish 3. That kind of gap naturally builds anticipation. Interestingly, 2027 will also be 20 years since the original Krrish (2006) hit theatres, which makes this comeback even more special.
Superhero films have become global powerhouses of cinema. If executed well, Krrish 4 could easily be the movie that places Indian superheroes on the international map.
Final Thoughts
The confirmation that Rakesh Roshan has locked Krrish 4’s release in 2027, with shooting beginning next year, has given Bollywood something massive to look forward to. It promises not just high-scale action but also a chance to celebrate India’s most beloved superhero once again.
Fans may have to wait a little longer, but the excitement surrounding this project shows that Krrish 4 is already shaping up to be one of the most ambitious Bollywood films to date. And when Hrithik Roshan finally dons the superhero mask again, it will definitely feel like the wait was worth it.
