Just
recently,
the
makers
of
Adipurush
had
announced
the
inclusion
of
Prabhas
and
Saif
Ali
Khan
in
the
highly
anticipated
film.
As
it
is
already
known
that
the
film
will
be
a
screen
adaptation
of
the
Indian
epic
Ramayana,
which
revolves
around
the
theme
of
the
victory
of
good
over
evil.
Well
now,
the
gossip
mongers
are
having
a
good
time
speculating
the
other
cast
of
the
film
after
the
announcement
of
Adipusush
(Ram)
as
Prabhas
and
Lankesh
(Ravan)
as
Saif
Ali
Khan.
As
per
buzz
that
is
doing
the
rounds,
a
very
popular
south
star
has
been
approached
to
essay
the
second
lead
character,
Lakshman
in
the
highly-anticipated
movie.
Though
not
confirmed
who
the
actor
is,
it
is
said
that
the
team
has
decided
to
go
for
the
actor,
to
gain
the
attention
of
the
south
audiences.
If
reports
are
to
be
believed,
the
official
announcement
of
the
actor
will
be
made
in
the
days
to
come.
It
is
to
be
noted
that
the
fire
and
ice
(Prabhas
and
Saif
Ali
Khan's
announcement)
poster
had
the
fierce
avatars
of
the
characters
from
the
Ramayana,
set
in
the
letter
'A'
that
included
Ram,
Hanuman
and
Ravan.
Since
the
two
characters
and
the
actors
portraying
them
have
been
already
unveiled,
there
are
high
chances
that
the
makers
will
next
drop
an
update
on
the
actor
playing
Hanuman
in
Adipurush.
Earlier,
there
were
reports
that
Anushka
Sharma
might
essay
the
role
of
Sita
opposite
Prabhas,
but
the
latest
report
suggests
that
the
news
is
mere
rumour
and
has
nothing
to
do
with
reality.
Talking
more
about
the
Om
Raut
directorial,
the
film
is
currently
in
the
pre-production
stage
and
is
expected
to
start
rolling
in
2021
and
release
in
2022.
The
bilingual
project
will
be
shot
simultaneously
in
Telugu
and
Hindi
and
will
also
have
a
mammoth
release
with
the
dubbed
versions
in
Tamil,
Malayalam,
Kannada
and
several
other
foreign
languages.
Adipurush
is
bankrolled
by
Bhushan
Kumar,
Krishan
Kumar,
Om
Raut,
Prasad
Sutar
and
Rajesh
Nair.
