There were reports that Prabhas will be seen playing a pivotal role in Tom Cruise starrer Mission Impossible 7. However, the reports have turned out to be false.
A Twitter user asked director Christopher McQuarrie, “@chrismcquarrie there is a viral news trending on Indian news channels that an Indian actor named prabhas has been roped in MI7 for a key role. Can you please confirm whether it is true or not?”
McQuarrie replied, “While he‘s a very talented man, we’ve never met. Welcome to the internet.”
Well, we are sure fans of Prabhas would be quite sad to know that he is not a part of Mission Impossible 7. However, Christopher McQuarrie praising him is surely a big deal
Talking about Prabhas’ films, the actor has many interesting films lined up. He will be seen in movies like Radhe Shyam, Salaar, Adipurush, and Nag Ashwin's next.
Radhe Shyam, which also stars Pooja Hegde, is slated to release on 30th July 2021. But, we wonder if due to the pandemic, the film will be postponed.
Meanwhile, Prabhas has been busy with the shooting of Salaar and Adipurush, and Nag Ashwin’s next is yet to go on the floors.
Salaar stars Shruti Haasan as the female lead. Directed by Prashanth Neel, it’s an action thriller. It is slated to release on 14th April 2022.
Adipurush also features Saif Ali Khan and Kriti Sanon. Prabhas will be seen playing the role of Lord Ram in the movie, Kriti portrays the character of Sita and Saif will be seen as Raavan. The movie will hit the big screens on 11th August 2022.
Talking about Nag Ashwin’s next, the film is said to be one of the biggest movies being made in Indian cinema. It also stars Deepika Padukone and Amitabh Bachchan in the lead roles.
Production houses confirm three-way collaboration between Mehta, Pellissery, and Rahman
Film currently in casting stage with shooting planned later this year
Pellissery's track record suggests an unconventional take on the romance genre
Rahman returns to work with Mehta after their Gandhi series collaboration
Project marks Pellissery's first major crossover into Hindi film circles
Wait, read that again. Hansal Mehta's production is backing a romantic drama from Lijo Jose Pellissery. And AR Rahman? He's building the entire soundscape for it. The combination feels almost unreal, right? It's like three separate rivers of filmmaking talent suddenly crashing into one project.

What's the actual plot of this pellissery film?
They're keeping story details locked down tight. The official line calls it a "lyrical exploration of love," which sounds nice but means very little coming from a director known for chaotic chases and funeral processions that spiral into madness. The script comes from Pellissery and writer Karan Vyas. Given Pellissery's history, expect something raw and unpredictable rather than rose-tinted. His approach to human relationships typically involves peeling back layers until things get messy.
Look at their backgrounds. Mehta built his name on biographical dramas and sharp social commentary. Pellissery operates in his own cinematic universe where conventional rules do not apply. Rahman's involvement guarantees the music will be another character entirely. Sahil Saigal from Mehta's production company called it "momentous" and for once that does not sound like empty producer talk. This feels like one of those projects that could actually shift how Indian films get made.
No confirmed release window yet; these things take time, especially with directors as particular as Pellissery. The production houses involved are Mehta's True Story Films and Amen Movie Monastery. This also marks the second time Rahman and Mehta have worked together after finishing their Gandhi series, which premiered at Toronto last year.
