    Ranveer Singh In Talks To Play Suryaputra Mahavir Karna In Vashu Bhagnani's Film? Here's What We Know

    It has been some time since Vashu Bhagnani's production house had announced a film on Mahavir Karna. The film had garnered buzz and speculations on who would be the best fit to play the role had been doing the rounds for a long time. Now, there seems to have been some clarity on this.

    If a report in Peepingmoon is to be believed, then the titular role of Suryaputra Karna might be essayed by none other than Ranveer Singh. A source quoted by the portal revealed, "What Pooja Entertainment has announced is a revamped version of the project. They are making it with a different set of cast and production teams, on a much bigger scale than earlier planned. Envisioned on an unparalleled scale with benchmark visual effects, the film requires someone who could bring Karna alive on screen and the makers believe Ranveer fits the bill to the T. They have approached the actor and he has also shown his interest, however, nothing concrete has materialized so far."

    Earlier, it was being said that Chiyaan Vikram might be playing the role. The film has been somewhat jinxed. It was back in 2016 that R.S Vimal announced the film with Prithviraj Sukumaran in the lead. However, it did not materialise after the producers backed out. It was then revived as a pan-India film in 2018 and was also shot for a few days in 2019 before it came to a sudden halt.
