Released on 22 December 2023, Salaar: Part 1 – Ceasefire is the first installment in a planned two-part epic directed by Prashanth Neel. The film unfolds in the brutal, war-torn city of Khansaar, where an exiled warrior Deva (Prabhas) returns to help his childhood friend Varadha (Prithviraj Sukumaran) reclaim his throne from treacherous relatives and powerful ministers. Their clash with a corrupt establishment triggers explosive confrontations and large-scale battles. Alongside high-octane action directed by Neel, the film’s backdrop combines dystopian world-building with intense personal vendettas, creating a gripping narrative of power, ambition, and loyalty. With a runtime of approximately 175 minutes, Ceasefire was released in Telugu along with dubbed versions in Hindi, Tamil, Kannada, and Malayalam, and later premiered on streaming platforms shortly after its theatrical run.
