Riding high on the nationwide success of Karthikeya 2 and the impressive 100-crore milestone of Thandel, director Chandoo Mondeti is stepping into a far bigger arena with his next ambitious venture.
Industry buzz suggests that the project has caught the attention of Karan Johar, with Dharma Productions coming on board to bankroll the film. This collaboration signals a major-scale production designed for a pan-Indian and multilingual audience.
The film is expected to feature a formidable cast led by Rana Daggubati and Bollywood superstar Akshay Kumar, with strong indications that a third leading star will soon be finalized- further elevating the project’s star power.
Returning to his forte of blending mythology, history, and suspense, Chandoo Mondeti is reportedly setting this story against the rich and mysterious backdrop of Ujjain. The narrative is said to incorporate gripping historical elements layered with thrilling storytelling.
Envisioned as a grand cinematic experience, the film will be mounted on a lavish scale and released in multiple languages to capture audiences across India and beyond.
With Dharma Productions’ extensive reach and marketing prowess, the project is poised to bridge the gap between South Indian storytelling and Bollywood’s nationwide appeal.
Given Chandoo Mondeti’s recent box-office momentum and the inclusion of major stars, expectations are already sky-high.
An official announcement, along with further casting details, is anticipated soon.
