Lokesh Kanagaraj project with Prabhas confirmed.Director Lokesh Kanagaraj has swiftly risen to prominence in the Indian film industry with just five movies under his belt. His latest project, "Leo," featuring Thalapathy Vijay, is poised to elevate his career even further. It's no exaggeration to say that all leading heroes in the industry eagerly anticipate the chance to collaborate with Lokesh, including the iconic Superstar Rajinikanth.
Recent speculations about Lokesh teaming up with Telugu superstar Prabhas have been confirmed by the director himself in a recent interview, though a timeline for the project's commencement remains uncertain.After "Leo," Lokesh has a lineup of high-profile films on the horizon, featuring stars like Rajinikanth, Kamal Haasan, and Suriya. These projects will follow once he completes his current commitments in what he humorously refers to as the Lokesh Cinematic Universe (LUC) series.
Meanwhile, Prabhas is eagerly awaiting the release of "Salaar," a highly anticipated 2023 film directed by Prashanth Neel, set to be released in two parts, with the first installment hitting theaters on December 22. This release will go head-to-head with Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan's film of the same name.
Following "Salaar," Prabhas is expected to collaborate with director Maruthi and embark on a multi-crore science fiction project, "Kalki 2898 AD," which holds the promise of becoming a movie franchise.
