Meanwhile, there is a possibility of the sequel to 'Mirai'. At the end of ‘Mirai’, the movie has promised to return with a sequel titled ‘Mirai: Jaithraya’. Meanwhile, Rana Daggubati has been introduced as a villain in the mid-credit scene, and it can be expected that the ‘Baahubali’ star will be seen as an antagonist in the next film. Rana’s character is seen possessing some superpower, but not much has been revealed to keep a mystery around it.

The movie focuses on a warrior who has been given the task of protecting nine sacred scriptures that can turn any mortal into a deity.
In an interview with OTTplay, Teja revealed how he got cast in ‘Mirat’ after ‘Hanuman’. He shared, “Post the success of HanuMan, my director Karthik Ghattamaneni, approached me with Mirai. He briefly narrated the story and started pointing out all the difficulties we would face while shooting the film. He had so many doubts and listed them one after the other, and I later understood that he was testing whether I was willing to go the extra mile and give the time this project required. The moment he stopped, I told him that Mirai would happen, exactly the way he had dreamt it.”
Apart from Teja Sajja, ‘Mirai’ also stars Manchu Manoj, Ritika Nayak and Shriya Saran in the lead roles. Manchu Manoj is seen as the main antagonist of the film.
