Two of India’s most prominent cinema icons from the Tamil and Telugu film industries, Allu Arjun and Atlee Kumar, are set to collaborate on an ambitious pan-India film. The duo’s forthcoming project is a grand-scale period saga, with a reincarnation theme, promising to captivate audiences with breathtaking visuals and unparalleled entertainment. This collaboration has sparked massive excitement across the film industry, with both Arjun and Atlee being known for their blockbuster hits.

Sun Pictures to Finance the Film

The film will be produced by Sun Pictures, a leading Tamil production house famous for delivering massive hits like Enthiran, Sarkar, and Jailer. The film is expected to have a budget exceeding 600 crores, placing it among the most expensive Indian films ever made. While production costs are still being negotiated, Sun Pictures has officially greenlit the project, and pre-production is set to begin by April-May.

Shifting Plans and Fast-Tracked Production

Originally, Salman Khan was rumored to be involved, but Sun Pictures’ hesitation led to Allu Arjun being chosen as the film’s star.
