Amitabh Bachchan, Deepika Padukone and Prabhas
Best known for his National Award-winning Telugu film Mahanathi (2018) starring Keerthy Suresh, Dulquer Salmaan, and Vijay Devarakonda, writer-director Nag Ashwin is now in the midst of the pre-production for his next. Produced by C Ashwini Dutt, the magnum opus aroused immense curiosity for the casting coup. The multilingual project announced last year, features Amitabh Bachchan, Prabhas, and Deepika Padukone.
Due to the pandemic, the project could not kick off earlier, but Ashwin, who has been fine-tuning the script and logistics, says, “I have had my round of meetings with all three of them separately. Pre-production has been going on for long. We will begin shooting around June-July.”
