Pawan Kalyan's highly anticipated period action film, "Hari Hara Veera Mallu – Part 1: Sword vs Spirit," has been subject to numerous release date changes, leaving fans eagerly awaiting a confirmed premiere. Initially, the film was slated for release on multiple dates, including May 9th and June 12th, 2025, but those plans were ultimately scrapped. The postponements have been attributed to various factors, including production delays caused by the COVID-19 pandemic and Pawan Kalyan's political commitments.

As of today, June 17, 2025, there are reports indicating two potential release dates. According to Cinejosh.com, the makers have announced a new release date of July 18th, 2025. They anticipate a solo release, which could significantly boost the film's opening at the box office. This date would give "Hari Hara Veera Mallu" a two-week window before other major releases arrive, such as Vijay Devarakonda's "Kingdom," potentially maximizing its impact.

However, another report suggests a different release date. Pinkvilla states that, according to Telugu Chitraalu, "HHVM" is now expected to hit theaters on July 25th, 2025. This date is supposedly the result of discussions between the producers and Amazon Prime Video, the film's OTT partner. The report suggests that Prime Video has been putting pressure on the producers to release the film within a specific timeframe, having already shown flexibility with previous postponements.

Adding to the uncertainty, Times of India reported on June 7th, 2025, that the film's June 12th release date was also canceled, marking the tenth delay since its initial announcement. The makers released a statement expressing gratitude to fans for their patience and emphasizing their commitment to maintaining the film's grandeur. They promised a new trailer and revised release date would be announced soon.

"Hari Hara Veera Mallu," directed by both Krish Jagarlamudi and A. M. Jyothi Krishna, is set in the 17th-century Mughal Empire. Pawan Kalyan plays the role of Veera Mallu, a legendary outlaw tasked with stealing the Koh-i-Noor diamond from the Mughals. The film boasts a star-studded cast, including Bobby Deol as Aurangzeb, Nidhhi Agerwal as the lead female role, and supporting performances from Sathyaraj, Jisshu Sengupta, and Anupam Kher. The music is composed by Academy Award winner M.M. Keeravani, with cinematography by Manoj Paramahamsa and production design by Thota Tharani. The film is expected to release in Telugu, Hindi, Tamil, Kannada, and Malayalam.

Given the conflicting reports, the confirmed release date for "Hari Hara Veera Mallu" remains unclear. Moviegoers are advised to stay tuned for an official announcement from the production team for the definitive date.
