Ghaati trailer: The Anushka Shetty-starrer will hit screens on September 9, 2025.

Ghaati trailer: Anushka Shetty has been selective with her film choices following her career-defining role in SS Rajamouli’s Baahubali franchise. She typically takes on one project a year, maintaining a low profile and preserving the mystique that surrounds her stardom. Now, after a brief hiatus, Anushka returns with Ghaati, a fierce action epic that has languished in post-production for over a year. Judging by the trailer released today, the film, directed by Krish Jagarlamudi, appears to be a perfect star vehicle for Anushka, boasting an epic scale and immersive, gritty world-building.

Ghaati is an action-adventure set against the rugged backdrop of the Eastern Ghats, centering on a community’s rebellion against colonizers and a sprawling drug trafficking empire. The trailer offers a glimpse into the journey of two cannabis couriers who rise up against a powerful drug mafia tightening its grip on the region. It hints at Anushka Shetty’s character, alongside Vikram Prabhu, leading the charge in this fierce uprising against their oppressors.

Watch the trailer of Anushka Shetty’s Ghaati:

Ghaati appears to be a violent spectacle packed with intense action and gore. Anushka Shetty is seen in brutal action sequences, with the trailer showcasing flashes of her volatile, larger-than-life screen presence. The film seems tailor-made for the actor to flex her superstar persona, balancing gritty combat with moments of romantic charm opposite Vikram Prabhu.
