Sai Pallavi is basking in the success of Ramayana. The film has already shattered the lifetime box-office records of Hanuman, Adipurush and Dhurandhar. Although the film has received mixed responses, the makers have now postponed the second part from 2027 to 2028.

Amid Ramayana’s reviews, Sai has her hands full with her upcoming releases. She will next be seen in Mani Ratnam’s upcoming romantic drama, Inji Vellam, starring alongside Vijay Sethupathi. The film has now got a release date and is set to hit theatres worldwide on January 29, 2027.

The makers announced the date on Wednesday by sharing a new motion poster on social media.

The poster offers a glimpse of what appears to be a happy family moment. Vijay Sethupathi is seen in a black T-shirt, smiling as he holds a little girl in his arms. Sai Pallavi, dressed in a saree, stands beside him, holding another little girl. Both children are dressed alike, with matching headbands and outfits.

Inji Vellam will see Vijay Sethupathi and Sai Pallavi sharing the screen for the first time. According to reports, a major portion of the film has been shot in Kolkata. However, the makers have kept the details of the characters and plot under wraps for now.

Inji Vellam also marks another collaboration between Mani Ratnam and Oscar-winning composer AR Rahman. The filmmaker and composer have worked together on several acclaimed films over the years.

The film has cinematography by Avik Mukhopadhayay, while Sreekar Prasad is handling the editing. It is produced by Subaskaran, Mani Ratnam and Siva Ananth under the banners of Madras Talkies and Lyca Productions.
