From Rudramadevi to Ghazi, Rana Daggubati became a known actor for his tryst with historical films. And then he has the likes of Baahubali under his arm where his larger than life villain in an epic drama. Then, he’s getting ready to don a big avatar in a mythological fantasy drama as well.
After working together in Rudramadevi, both Rana and director Gunasekhar have grown closer developing a big rapport. For that reason, now creative director Guna wants his next film to feature Rana as the lead man. He’s coming up with a big-budgeted fantasy that deals with King Hiranyakashipa and his son Prince Prahlada’s story. Rana will be playing the cruel king who gets killed in the hands of Lord Vishnu who bears Narasimha avatar to kill him.
From a couple of years, Gunasekhar is working on the script and we hear that the pre-production is almost nearing an end. Touted to be a 150 crore budgeted VFX extravaganza that will be shot in Telugu, Tamil and Hindi, Rana’s presence is bringing many Bollywood companies as co-producers to Gunasekhar. From August, the film will get on floors if we have to say.
While the negative role of Hiranyakashipudu will be a cake walk for Rana, we have to see who is going to play his son Prahlada in this film.
