A source told Pinkvilla, "The film is in the final stages of writing, and is all set to go on floors in April 2025. SS Rajamouli was looking for a female lead with a global presence; and who better than Priyanka to play the lead role. The filmmaker had multiple meetings with PC over the last 6 months, and the energies have aligned for both the stakeholders."
The source further added that it is an action-oriented role, and hence Priyanka is excited to be in the movie. She has reportedly started prepping for it too.
As for the remaining cast, Prithviraj Sukumaran is also a part of the project, and will be playing the role of the antagonist. It will be a two-part epic saga.
