On August 9th, 2025, the success press conference for the animated blockbuster Mahavatar Narsimha was held at Mumbai's ISKCON Temple, rather than the usual five-star hotel setting. The event was attended by director Ashwin Kumar, producer Shilpaa Dhawan, Chaluve Gowda of Homebale Films, and eminent distributor Anil Thadani.
Director Ashwin Kumar revealed that the sequel, Mahavatar Parshuram, will offer a "never-before-seen experience" and be on a scale that has never been witnessed before. Producer Chaluve Gowda shared that after watching Mahavatar Narsimha, superstar Prabhas and blockbuster filmmaker Prashanth Neel of Salaar and KGF fame invited Ashwin to come down South and direct an action film.
Interestingly, even before the release of Mahavatar Narsimha, the makers had announced plans to create a Mahavatar Cinematic Universe. After Mahavatar Parshuram, the franchise will continue with Mahavatar Raghunandan in 2029, Mahavatar Dwarkadhish in 2031, Mahavatar Gokulananda in 2033, and Mahavatar Kalki Part 1 and Part 2 in 2035 and 2037, respectively.
