Bollywood director Om Raut initially planned to rope in Deepika Padukone to play the role of Seetha in his film Adipurush with young rebel star Prabhas. But, backed out, after she is confirmed for Prabhas’s other film with Nag Ashwin. The makers of Adipurush are now looking for other options.

It is known that, Nag Ashwin and his producers are zeroing in Pan India stars for their film. Deepika Padukone will be making her Tollywood debut with the yet to be titled flick that will also feature Amitabh Bachchan playing a crucial role. It is learnt that, both the actors are paid huge remuneration for the film.

Coming to Adipurush, Saif Ali Khan is finalized to play Ravan. There were reports that, heroine of the film would be announced for Prabhas’s birthday. But, no such announcement had come on the day. This film will also be made on high budget and it will have heavy VFX.

Apart from these two, Prabhas who is presently starring in Radhe Shyam also has a film with Prashanth Neel.
