Salman Khan’s Monster Locks ₹100 Cr Theatrical Deal Ahead of Eid 2027 Release

Salman Khan’s upcoming film Monster has secured a major theatrical distribution deal, reaffirming his enduring box office appeal despite a recent run of underwhelming releases. The action drama, directed by Vamshi Paidipally, is slated for an Eid 2027 release and has already generated significant industry buzz.

According to a report from Bollywood Hungama, PVR INOX has acquired the all-India distribution rights for Monster for a reported ₹100 crore. This substantial investment highlights the confidence distributors still place in Salman Khan’s star power. Industry sources note that even as the actor navigates a challenging phase at the box office, his ability to command such deals remains strong.

Monster is produced by Dil Raju under the Sri Venkateswara Creations banner, bringing together talent from both Bollywood and the South Indian film industries. The film features Nayanthara as the female lead and Arvind Swamy as the antagonist, promising a high-voltage ensemble. Reports indicate that Salman Khan will appear in multiple avatars, adding to the anticipation among his fans.

Earlier this year, it was reported that Salman Khan is collaborating with Tollywood director Vamshi Paidipally for this action-packed project. The film’s production has drawn attention for its pan-India approach and the combination of leading names from different industries.

With Monster scheduled to hit theatres during Eid 2027, the stage is set for one of the biggest releases of the year, as distributors and audiences alike await Salman Khan’s return to the big screen.
