Director Aditya Dhar is currently on a break after the massive success of the Dhurandhar films. While there is no official confirmation about his next project, reports suggest he is exploring multiple ideas across different genres.
One of the options is the revival of his long pending project, The Immortal Ashwatthama. This film blends science fiction with mythology and has been in development for years. It was earlier delayed due to high production costs and funding challenges.
After the success of Dhurandhar, the situation appears to have changed. Producers are now reportedly more open to investing in large scale projects. This has increased the chances of The Immortal Ashwatthama finally moving forward into production.
Another project being considered is based on the life of Chandragupta Maurya. This film is expected to be a period action drama. It would focus on the rise and battles of one of India’s most prominent historical rulers.
Apart from these, a third project is also under discussion. While details remain limited, it is believed to be a large scale sports drama. This suggests that Aditya Dhar is keen to explore diverse storytelling formats.
There were also rumours about a major production house approaching him for a spy thriller. However, reports indicate that he declined the offer. The director reportedly wants to avoid repeating the espionage genre at this stage.
These developments show that Aditya Dhar is carefully planning his next move. He appears focused on choosing a fresh and engaging subject. An official announcement is expected once the planning process is complete.
