Vicky
Kaushal's
upcoming
superhero
flick
The
Immortal
Ashwatthama
was
in
the
buzz
right
since
its
inception.
The
movie
will
be
helmed
by
director
Aditya
Dhar.
However,
speculations
were
rife
that
the
film
has
been
shelved
due
to
issues
surrounding
the
budget.
However,
the
latest
development
suggests
that
the
movie
has
been
delayed
for
few
months
instead
of
being
shelved.
Talking
about
the
same,
a
source
close
to
the
film
revealed
to
Pinkvilla
that
looking
at
the
current
pandemic
scenario
and
its
impact
on
the
theatres,
the
makers
have
decided
to
re-analyse
the
budget
of
the
film
along
with
the
portions
that
will
be
dedicated
to
filming
the
VFX
scenes.
The
source
added
that
the
makers
need
some
time
for
the
same
but
that
since
it
is
a
dream
project
for
the
makers,
they
wish
to
make
it
soon.
The
movie
will
see
Sara
Ali
Khan
alongside
Vicky
Kaushal.
The
source
further
went
on
to
say
that
Vicky
Kaushal
and
Sara
Ali
Khan
have
also
stopped
prepping
for
the
film
for
now
and
will
continue
for
the
same
when
it
gets
back
on
track.
Not
only
this,
the
source
said
that
the
locations
for
the
shooting
are
also
posing
to
be
an
obstacle
due
to
the
pandemic
situation.
The
makers
are
also
experiencing
issues
related
to
the
Visa
and
they
will
look
out
for
the
locations
when
they
start
working
on
the
film
again.
Earlier
in
July,
Vicky
Kaushal
had
teased
a
picture
of
himself
with
director
Aditya
Dhar
wherein
the
latter
had
wrapped
up
the
actor
in
what
looked
like
a
white
cloth
and
paint.
The
post
looked
intriguing
and
had
left
fans
excited
for
the
film.
The
Uri:
The
Surgical
Strike
actor
had
captioned
the
same
stating,
"When
the
Director's
really
serious
about
'casting'
you
in
the
Film.
Prepping
to
be
The
Immortal!
@adityadharfilms
#TheImmortalAshwatthama." Take
a
look
at
the
post.
The
makers
of
the
film
had
released
the
first
poster
of
the
same
in
January
this
year.
They
had
captioned
the
same
stating,
"Raising
the
bar
higher
for
the
superhero
genre
not
only
in
India
but
across
the
world,
this
film
is
a
high-concept
visual
spectacle
in
the
making.

the
team
that
