According to reports, Raaka will explore a centuries old mythological mystery through a contemporary science fiction setting. The narrative is expected to move between two timelines, creating a blend of mythology, adventure and futuristic technology.

Given the scale of the story, the makers are reportedly planning to release the film in two parts.

Atlee is said to be designing Allu Arjun’s character on an international scale, with the actor expected to sport a new look and body language. Hollywood level visuals and elaborate action sequences are reportedly among the major attractions of the project.

The film also features a star studded cast, with Deepika Padukone, Mrunal Thakur, Janhvi Kapoor and Rashmika Mandanna said to be playing key roles.

Young composer Sai Abhyankkar is reportedly handling the music, with his songs and background score expected to add to the film’s large scale presentation.

A recent poster featuring the mysterious number 37 created considerable curiosity online. The makers also shared a short video with the message Get ready to witness a global triumph, which quickly generated buzz on social media.
