Actress Tamanna celebrates Sankranthi Kites party with children

Director Prashanth Varma is reviving his paused project, Brahma Rakshasa, and superstar Prabhas may take the lead role. Initially, Varma had envisioned this dark, supernatural movie with Bollywood actor Ranveer Singh. However, now Prabhas, eager to take on more complex, dark characters, has shown interest in bringing this story to life, which would add to his list of high-profile projects.

Prabhas, a prominent figure in Indian cinema, has a full slate of films, including Rajasaab with director Hanu Raghavapudi, as well as Spirit, Kalki 2, and Salaar 2. Rumors now suggest that he might add Brahma Rakshasa to this lineup after a recent meeting with Prashanth Varma. Varma, known for creating a unique cinematic universe with films like Hanuman, Mahakali, Adhira, and Mokshajna, is a director with a distinct style rooted in mythological and supernatural elements.

Originally, Varma planned Brahma Rakshasa as a film led by Ranveer Singh, but the project was halted after years of planning. Now, he has revisited the concept with Prabhas, who has shown a keen interest. If finalized, this film would offer Prabhas an intense, negative role that is different from his previous work, placing him in Varma’s growing cinematic universe.

Given both Prabhas and Varma’s busy schedules, production might only begin after 2027. Despite this wait, fans are excited, predicting that Prabhas’ portrayal in such a dark role could lead to a major hit, bringing something unique to his career and delighting audiences.
