According to sources close to the development, Ranveer Singh and Prasanth Varma’s next is tentatively titled Rakshas. “It’s a part of the Prasanth Varma Cinematic Universe, where the director is introducing several characters before bringing them all together in the finale. Ranveer is blown away by the vision and long-term plans that his director has for the universe and is excited to embark on the journey of Rakshas soon,” revealed a source close to the development.
The script and screenplay with the pre-visualization process are already done and the makers are now figuring out the timelines of the shoot. “Ranveer has met Prasanth Varma and the team multiple times over the last few weeks and has already done a Pooja for the film on the occasion of Hanuman Jayanti in Hyderabad,” the source added.
