From Kalki 2898 AD to Ramayana, Indian cinema is increasingly using Comic Con as a global platform to showcase films
Very slowly, Indian cinema is finding a new avenue for promoting its movies. Long known as a bastion for high-scale Hollywood promotions, Comic Con, over the past few years, has caught the attention of Bollywood. The most anticipated movie that shall see its launch there is director Nitesh Tiwari’s Ramayana at the San Diego Comic-Con (SDCC). On July 23, 2026, stars Ranbir Kapoor and Yash shall showcase the film’s official first look and exclusive footage at Ballroom 20 in San Diego. The Hollywood biggies expected at the SDCC are Avengers: Doomsday (which stars Robert Downey Jr.), celebrations around Superman, and first-look previews of Blade Runner 2099 and The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power.
The beginning with Baahubali
The first Indian film to enter this realm was Baahubali, followed years later by Nag Ashwin’s Kalki 2898 AD, which was called Project K when it made its debut at SDCC in July 2023. The event was attended by Prabhas and Kamal Haasan.
