Krrish 4 Release Date: Krrish 4 Set for 2027 Release: Hrithik Roshan to Make His Directorial Debut
The beloved Indian superhero franchise is officially returning, and this time, there’s a major twist. Krrish 4 is not only coming to the big screen in 2027, but it will also mark Hrithik Roshan’s debut as a director, taking the reins from his father and veteran filmmaker Rakesh Roshan.
🔹 A New Chapter in the Krrish Saga
The Krrish universe began over two decades ago with Koi… Mil Gaya (2003), which introduced audiences to Rohit Mehra and his alien friend, Jadoo. The story evolved into a full-fledged superhero franchise with Krrish (2006) and Krrish 3 (2013), both directed by Rakesh Roshan.
Now, after a long wait, Krrish 4 is finally in motion—and it’s going to be bigger and more ambitious than ever.

In a heartfelt move, Rakesh Roshan recently announced that his son Hrithik would not only return as the superhero but also take over as director for the upcoming installment. This shift marks a symbolic “passing of the baton” after 25 years of working together in the film industry.
Rakesh expressed his pride, saying that Hrithik has a strong vision for where the character of Krrish should go next and believes it’s time for the franchise to evolve with a fresh creative direction.
🔹 Release Timeline and Production Details
According to recent updates:
Shooting is scheduled to begin in mid-2026
Theatrical release is targeted for 2027
The pre-production process is already underway and is expected to be far more detailed and technical compared to the previous films.
Rakesh Roshan said that while the script was finalized without much delay, a significant amount of time was spent working out the budget, mainly because of the ambitious scale and heavy visual effects the film demands. Now that those logistics are sorted, the team is moving full steam ahead.
🔹 Behind the Scenes: What’s New in Krrish 4?
While the storyline is being kept under wraps, there are already some exciting insights:
The design of Hrithik’s new superhero mask took six months to finalize, hinting at a bold new look for the character.
Yash Raj Films has shaken hands with Rakesh Roshan’s Filmkraft Productions to co-produce the film, ensuring a strong production and distribution backbone.
🔹 Why Krrish 4 Matters
Krrish is India’s longest-running superhero franchise and one of the few homegrown attempts at creating a sci-fi universe with emotional depth. With Krrish 4, the Roshans want to push boundaries in terms of visual effects, storytelling, and world-building.
For longtime fans and a new generation alike, this movie could redefine what superhero cinema looks like in India.
📅 Final Thoughts
With Hrithik Roshan set to direct and star, and a 2027 release on the calendar, Krrish 4 is shaping up to be one of the most anticipated Indian films of the decade. As production gears up, more updates on casting, music, and plot are expected to follow.
