Nani, who is currently savoring the success of his latest film ‘Saripodhaa Sanivaaram,’ has created significant buzz with the announcement of his next big project. The talented actor will take the lead role in the third film of the acclaimed HIT franchise. Titled ‘HIT: The 3rd Case,’ the movie will be directed by Sailesh Kolanu, marking Nani’s 32nd appearance on the silver screen.
The third installment in the HIT universe promises to be as riveting as its predecessors. Produced by Prashanti Tipirneni of Wall Poster Cinema, in collaboration with Unanimous Productions, the film is scheduled to release on May 1, 2025. Fans of the franchise are eagerly awaiting its arrival, with high expectations for this upcoming thriller.
The promotional material released so far has done much to whet the appetite of both fans and critics alike. A promotional clip titled ‘Hunter’s Command’ has given audiences a brief yet tantalizing introduction to Nani’s character, Arjun Sarkaar. The video begins with a HIT officer driving a car through snowy mountains, pursued by a couple of police officers. The tension mounts as one officer warns that the HIT officer might be in danger, only to be corrected by the other who states that Arjun Sarkaar is the danger himself.
The video reaches its climax on a thrilling note, showing Nani with bloody hands, wielding an axe while smoking a cigar and driving the car, showcasing a blend of style and ferocity. This depiction of Arjun Sarkaar, who seems to be more of a criminal than a conventional cop, has sparked considerable intrigue and excitement.
Sailesh Kolanu, who directed the earlier successful installments of the HIT franchise, returns to helm ‘HIT: The 3rd Case.’ His previous work has set high standards, and expectations are understandably sky-high for this next chapter. Key technical crew members who contributed to the earlier HIT films also return for this installment, including Sanu John Varghese handling cinematography. Their previous collaborations have resulted in visually striking and atmospherically rich films, which bodes well for ‘HIT: The 3rd Case.

Nani’s transformation into Arjun Sarkaar is already being lauded for its intensity and authenticity.
