A teaser of Mirai was also revealed which reveals Black Sword to be the most dangerous and powerful warrior in the world. He is after a power that was left behind by Indian king Ashoka, which could potentially bring the world under the control of the one who wields it. Teja Sajja plays the protagonist, who should stop Black Sword at all cost.

Mirai, directed by Karthik Ghattamaneni, promises a blend of mythology and action. The film explores the mysteries of Ashoka’s nine unknown books, intertwining historical intrigue with modern cinematic storytelling. The movie, featuring Ritika Nayak as the female lead, is set to release in both 2D and 3D formats on April 18, 2025, in five languages.
