Alia Bhatt Loses Maddock’s Chamunda Project

Share


In what is being seen as another setback to Alia Bhatt’s career plans, the actress has reportedly lost a major project. According to sources, Maddock Films had initially finalized Alia for a supernatural thriller titled Chamunda, which was envisioned as the launchpad for her own supernatural franchise—on the lines of Shraddha Kapoor’s Stree.

“Alia was extremely excited about the project,” reveals a source close to the development. “However, after Saiyaara with Aneet Padda gained traction, Maddock Films shifted focus toward building a female superhero universe around her. That’s how Shakti Shalini came into existence, while Chamunda was pushed to the back burner.”

The source further adds that these changes followed the underperformance of Alia’s female-led film Jigra, produced by Karan Johar, at the box office. Additionally, her project Alpha with Yash Raj Films was postponed indefinitely, further complicating her lineup.

So, has Chamunda been shelved? “For the time being, yes,” says the source. “The makers are waiting to see how Alia’s Love & War with Sanjay Leela Bhansali shapes up before taking a final call.”
