Star heroine Anushka Shetty will soon be seen in the highly anticipated crime drama, Ghaati. Directed by Krish Jagarlamudi, the film is slated to open in cinemas worldwide on September 5, 2025. Ghaati marks Anushka and Krish’s second collaboration after their 2010 hyperlink thriller, Vedam.
In a recent interview while promoting Ghaati, Krish revealed that he and Anushka have been planning to collaborate on an exciting project for a long time. “Anushka had once suggested Saroja 2,” revealed Krish. Saroja is Anushka’s character’s name in Vedam, and a spin-off of the iconic character indeed sounds exciting. Whether or not Krish will take Anushka’s suggestion seriously remains to be seen.
In Ghaati, Anushka plays the role of Seelavathi, a ganja peddler aka Ghaati. The film’s story takes place on the Andhra-Odisha border. Tamil star Vikram Prabhu, star character artiste Jagapathi Babu, and others will be seen in prominent roles in the film. UV Creations and First Frame Entertainments jointly produced the movie.
