While all the plans were set, the official announcement has now hit a roadblock. Ranveer Singh will no longer be a part of Prashanth Varma’s Rakshas. They have amicably parted ways due to creative differences,” revealed a source close to the development.

The source further added, “They were exploring and deciding several solutions, but they have decided to move on now with the promise of collaborating in the near future.” Prasanth will now be looking to restart the casting process for Rakshas, as he intends to bring this film to the big screen before moving on to Jai HanuMan.
