Ajay Devgn’s fans have long been waiting to see him in a unique role with a fresh concept instead of sequels. The wait may soon be over as Ajay is reportedly in talks for a horror comedy directed by JP Thuminad.
Thuminad, known in the Kannada film industry, has recently gained attention after his film Su From So became a huge blockbuster. The movie earned nearly Rs. 100 crores despite being made on a minimal budget.
The upcoming horror comedy will be produced by KVN Productions. Reports suggest the studio is planning to enter the Hindi film industry with this project, making Ajay’s film their launch vehicle. Sources revealed that this project is the kind of film Ajay has wanted to do for a while.
An insider shared that Ajay has always been open to hearing stories from creators across industries. Thuminad’s idea for their collaboration has already impressed him. Ajay has asked the director to return with a complete script, and they are expected to meet again in a month.
If all goes well, the untitled film may go on floors in the first half of next year. Details about casting and other aspects will be revealed later. Ajay, who has worked in serious horror films like Bhoot and Shaitaan, will now explore a mix of horror and comedy, offering audiences a new side of his acting.
It remains to be seen if Thuminad’s script can hold audience attention from start to finish. Hindi audiences prefer a complete entertainment package. Thuminad will have to ensure his film appeals to both single-screen and multiplex viewers.
The final outcome depends on whether the script wins Ajay’s approval in their next meeting. Fans will have to wait for further updates on this much-anticipated collaboration.
