Prabhas Will Be Aiming for Archer’s Physique in Adipurush, Says Director OM Raut

Raut told PTI that he chose Prabhas for the titular role as he has the depth required to essay the character. He further added that in the early months of the lockdown he had discussed the concept with Prabhas. The much-anticipated 3D epic action drama is slated to go on floors in January next year.

Meanwhile, Prabhas is working on his upcoming film Radhe Shyam with Pooja Hegde. The filming was adjourned due to the coronavirus induced lockdown and will reportedly resume in September. The upcoming romantic drama is written and directed by Radha Krishna Kumar. Prabhas is also gearing for a big project which will mark his maiden collaboration with actress Deepika Padukone. The yet-to-be-titled film is directed by Nag Ashwin and will be a trilingual film, releasing in Hindi, Tamil and Telugu languages. The Deepika-Prabhas-starrer will go on floors after Prabhas wraps work for Radhe Shyam.
