Upcoming Bollywood Movies 2027: Release Dates, Cast and What to Expect

Bollywood fans have a lot to look forward to in 2027. Big stars, big sequels and big-budget dramas are on the calendar. This list uses release dates reported as of October 2026.

Note: Release dates in Bollywood move often, and different sources sometimes disagree. Confirm each date with the makers before planning.

The films people are talking about most

• Love & War: listed for January 21, 2027, with Ranbir Kapoor, Alia Bhatt and Vicky Kaushal.
• Stree 3: listed for August 13, 2027.
• Spirit: listed for March 5, 2027, though one list gives October 29, 2027.
• Force 3: listed for March 19, 2027.

These four titles keep coming up in searches. Two of them continue existing film series, and one brings three major stars together.

January and February 2027

• The Pride of Bharat: Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj: listed for January 21, 2027, with Rishab Shetty and Shefali Shah.
• Love & War: listed for January 21, 2027 (one source says January 22). Stars Ranbir Kapoor, Alia Bhatt and Vicky Kaushal.
• Naagzilla: listed for February 12, 2027.

The year starts with a big Republic Day week. Two major films are listed for the same date, which is called a clash. When this happens, one film often moves, so keep an eye on the final announcement.

March to August 2027

• Spirit: listed for March 5, 2027, though one list gives October 29, 2027. Treat this date as uncertain.
• Force 3: listed for March 19, 2027.
• Dada: listed for May 14, 2027.
• Stree 3: listed for August 13, 2027.

The middle of the year has a spread of action, drama and a franchise film. August is a popular month for big releases because of the long Independence Day weekend.

December 2027

• Maha Munjya: listed for December 24, 2027.

Christmas week is another favourite slot for filmmakers, since many people are on holiday.

Many films still have no date

One release calendar notes that 11 films announced for 2027 have no release date yet. That means the list will grow as the year goes on, and some dates above may shift to make room.

Why Bollywood dates keep changing

• Clashes: two big films on one date split the audience, so makers often move one.
• Festival windows: holidays such as Republic Day, Independence Day and Christmas are in high demand.
• Shooting and editing: large films can need more time than planned.
• Star schedules: many big stars work on several projects at once.

Why 2027 could be big for Hindi cinema

• Franchise power: Stree 3 and Force 3 are both continuing existing film series.
• Star combinations: Love & War brings three major names together.
• Festival releases: dates like Republic Day week and Christmas are prime box-office windows.
• A mix of styles: the list includes action, drama, horror-comedy style titles and a historical film.

How to follow release news

1. Follow the official pages of the films you like.
2. Wait for a trailer or a poster with a date before booking anything.
3. Check the date again a few weeks before release.
4. Use a booking app that sends alerts when tickets open.

What the cast lists tell us

Love & War is the film with the biggest star names on the list. Ranbir Kapoor, Alia Bhatt and Vicky Kaushal together make it one of the most talked-about titles, which is why the date question around January 21 or 22 gets so much attention.

The Pride of Bharat: Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj stars Rishab Shetty and Shefali Shah. It shares its listed date with Love & War, so it is one to watch for a possible clash.

Stree 3 and Force 3 are both numbered sequels. Fans of the earlier films already know what kind of story to expect, which is why these titles draw early interest.

Tips before you book

• Wait for an official poster or trailer that shows the date.
• If a film shares its date with another big release, expect a change.
• For the opening weekend of a big film, book as soon as tickets open.
• Keep your plans flexible. A date moved by a week can still affect travel or leave.
