More about Mahavatar Narsimha
After the box office success of Pan-India releases like KGF and Kantara, Hombale Films has returned with the Indian mythological film, Mahavatar Narsimha. Mahavatar Narasimha has been adapted from not one, but three Puranas: the Vishnu Purana, Narasimha Purana, and Shrimad Bhagavata Purana. The film begins with the birth of Hiranyakashipu, whose rule is marked by terror, ego, and vengeance.
However, his own son, Prahlad, is an ardent follower of Lord Vishnu. However, when atrocities are carried out on Prahalad for his devotion towards Lord Vishnu, Lord Narasimha arrives with his terrifying half-man, half-lion avatar to save Prahlad from his father, Hiranyakashipu. Soon after its theatre release, Mahavatar Narsimha became one of the highest-earning films of the year.
Will there be a sequel to Mahavatar Narsimha?
The producers of Hombale Films and Kleem Productions have officially announced the Mahavatar Cinematic Universe (MCU). It will be a decade-long animated franchise that will focus on the stories of ten divine avatars of Lord Vishnu. The MCU began with Mahavatar Narsimha in 2025 and is expected to conclude with Mahavatar Kalki Part 2 in 2037.
After Mahavatar Narsimha in 2025, the next film will be Mahavatar Parshuram in 2027. It will be followed by Mahavatar Raghunandan in 2029, Mahavatar Dwarkadhish in 2031, Mahavatar Gokulananda in 2033, and Mahavatar Kalki in two parts in 2035 and 2037. Every film will feature a new avatar, and people are thrilled to witness the decade-long sequels.
Mahavatar Narsimha features the strong voice-over by Aditya Raj Sharma, Haripriya Matta, and Sanket Jaiswal in the Hindi version. According to Sacnilk, the film earned Rs. 249 crore in India and scored Rs. 324.5 crore at the global box office. Talking about the sequels, Ashwin Kumar told the Hindustan Times:
“This is also not just a film, it’s the echo of our ancestors and our land and our history. So that the virtues really get, you know, embedded forward into the generations.”
