The first-look image shows Deepika in a khaki green outfit, striking a warrior pose while holding swords in both hands. The imagery suggests a high-octane, combat-heavy role, aligning with Atlee’s reputation for mounting visually grand action spectacles. The makers did not release additional details about her character, but the look has already sparked widespread discussion across social media.
Sun Pictures, the production house backing the film, also shared another post wishing Deepika on her birthday, featuring her in a contrasting style. While the makers have not confirmed whether this appearance is linked to the film, industry observers believe it could hint at multiple character shades or timelines within the narrative.
Coinciding with the birthday celebrations, a video from a recent fan interaction also surfaced online. The clip is from a fan meet organised by the actor on December 19, where she was seen cutting a three-tier cake surrounded by admirers. Fans sang songs from her debut film Om Shanti Om, including “Aankhon Mein Teri,” followed by a birthday chorus. Deepika responded by thanking them and acknowledging their support, visibly moved by the turnout.
AA22xA6 marks Deepika Padukone’s first collaboration with Telugu superstar Allu Arjun and director Atlee. The film is described as a science-fiction action entertainer and is among the most anticipated pan-India projects currently in development. Alongside Deepika and Allu Arjun, the cast includes Rashmika Mandanna, Janhvi Kapoor, and Mrunal Thakur.
According to sources associated with the project, Allu Arjun will be seen in multiple roles, portraying several characters within the same film—an ambitious first in his career. He is reportedly set to play members of an entire family, adding to the film’s narrative complexity.
The working title AA22xA6 reflects the film’s position as Allu Arjun’s 22nd project and Atlee’s sixth directorial venture. The official title and release timeline are expected to be announced at a later stage.
With its star-studded cast, genre-blending premise, and the early reveal of Deepika Padukone’s fierce new look, AA22xA6 has already positioned itself as one of the most closely watched Indian films in the pipeline.
