Pushpa 2 is a massive hit at the box office and is all set for its OTT release on January 30, 2025, on Netflix. Meanwhile, Allu Arjun has shifted his focus to his next project, which will be directed by Trivikram Srinivas.
Haarika & Haasine Creations will bankroll this film on a massive scale. As per the latest update, the project will be based on Lord Karthikeya, the God of War. Trivikram Srinivas is venturing into new territory with this film, which will have a period setting.
This means Allu Arjun will portray Lord Karthikeya, also known as Murugan or Skanda, marking his first mythological role in his career. While he previously played Gona Ganna Reddy in Gunasekhar's Rudramadevi, this film is said to be entirely different.
The scripting for the film is nearing completion, and reports suggest that Allu Arjun and Trivikram Srinivas will soon meet for a final script reading. The untitled project will reportedly be made on a massive budget of ₹1,000 crore and will be Trivikram Srinivas's first-ever pan-India film.
The actor-director duo has collaborated on three successful films so far: Julayi, Son of Satyamurthy, and Ala Vaikunthapurramuloo, all of which have been massive hits. Following the success of Pushpa 2, fans and the general audience are eagerly anticipating what Trivikram Srinivas has planned for Allu Arjun this time.
Producer Naga Vamsi has revealed in several interviews that much of the film will be shot indoors and will involve extensive use of VFX. The news of Allu Arjun playing Lord Karthikeya has already become a hot topic in film circles. Stay tuned for more updates on this exciting project!
