As announced through this poster, JGM will hit the big screens on August 3rd, next year. The action entertainer is to be a pan Indian film and will be made available to watch in Hindi, Telugu, Tamil, Kannada, and Malayalam. Puri's production house, Puri Connects, have also released some new images showing Vijay Deverakonda in character and also him posing with what looks like to be the members of the Indian army. It will be interesting to see the duo make the most out of this too just as they did with Liger.
