Following the resounding success of his superhero film "Hanu-Man," director Prasanth Varma is setting his sights on Bollywood. Sources reveal that Varma is in talks with Bollywood star Ranveer Singh for a grand mythological film, estimated to have a budget of Rs 100 crore.
While details remain under wraps, it's confirmed that the project will be a standalone film, separate from the "Hanu-Man" sequel, "Jai Hanuman." Varma and Singh are reportedly discussing the project with major Bollywood studios, including T-Series, Viacom 18, and Jio Studios.
"Prasanth is looking for a bankable star to pull off his larger-than-life scripts and reach pan-India viewers," a source close to the director shared. The success of "Hanu-Man" has garnered Varma attention from both Telugu and Bollywood producers, but he's taking his time to find the perfect fit for his vision.
Varma, known for his innovative storytelling in films like "Awe" and "Kalki," is determined to continue pushing boundaries and exploring the superhero and mythological genres. With his talent and Ranveer Singh's star power, this collaboration has the potential to be a game-changer in Indian cinema.
