The multilingual project is touted to be a first-of-its-kind sci-fi drama set against the backdrop of a third World War. The team is presently busy with the pre-production work and the regular shoot is expected to begin in the second half of 2021 as both Prabhas and Deepika Padukone are currently wrapping up their prior work commitments.

Prabhas is presently busy wrapping up the final schedule of his next film Radhe Shyam, co-starring Pooja Hegde. He will soon start shooting for Prashanth Neel’s gangster-drama Salaar. His much-awaited mythological magnum opus Adipurush has already begun production.

Deepika Padukone, on the other hand, will soon finish Dharma Productions’ next with filmmaker Shakun Batra.
