RANVEER TO STAR IN HANUMAN DIRECTOR PRASHANT VARMA’S NEXT?
A source from the filmmaker’s team has exclusively revealed to us that the actor is “interested” in working with Varma on his next project
Actor Ranveer Singh seems to be in the busiest phase of his career. After Rohit Shetty’s Singham Again and Farhan Akhtar’s Don 3 in the pipeline, the actor is all set to collaborate with HanuMan director Prasanth Varma for his next.
A source from Varma’s team exclusively told us that Singh is “interested” in working with the filmmaker but is yet to sign on the dotted line.
“Yes, it’s true that Prasanth approached Ranveer for a film in his cinematic universe. It will be his next project after HanuMan. Ranveer is interested and it is almost confirmed but nothing has been finalised yet. An official announcement will be made once it is finalised,” the insider revealed.
HanuMan, which marks the beginning of the Prasanth Varma Cinematic Universe (PVCU), was released earlier this year. Shortly after, Varma announced the second instalment — Jai Hanuman
— on the occasion of the Pran Prathistha of the Ram Mandir in Ayodhya.
Varma had taken to X to share the news. “With gratitude for the immense love and support showered upon #HanuMan from audiences across the globe, I stand at the threshold of a new journey by making a promise to myself! #JaiHanuman Pre-Production Begins on the auspicious day of Ram Mandir Pran Prathistha,” he wrote.
Whether Singh will be part of Jai Hanuman is not yet confirmed.
Set in the fictional village of Anjanadri, HanuMan featured actors Teja Sajja, Amritha Aiyer, Varalaxmi Sarathkumar and Vinay Rai in the lead roles. The film earned over ₹100 crore at the worldwide box office.
