Veteran screenwriter Vijayendra Prasad has joined Dhanush’s ambitious mythological jungle adventure, produced by Sanjay Leela Bhansali and directed by PS Mithran, significantly raising expectations for the large-scale project.

Vijayendra Prasad Joins the Mythological Saga

Celebrated writer Vijayendra Prasad is preparing to take on another major cinematic project after delivering stories for blockbusters such as Baahubali, RRR and Bajrangi Bhaijaan. He has now joined an ambitious mythological jungle saga starring Dhanush in the lead role. Reports about the film have circulated for several months, but director PS Mithran has now confirmed Prasad’s involvement. Known for creating emotionally powerful, larger-than-life stories that connect with audiences across languages, the veteran writer is expected to give the project a strong narrative foundation.

Dhanush Leads a Large-Scale Jungle Adventure

In a recent interview, PS Mithran described the upcoming film as a grand mythological adventure set against a jungle backdrop. Although complete details about the story and Dhanush’s character remain undisclosed, the unusual combination of mythology, wilderness and adventure has already generated considerable curiosity. Dhanush’s versatility and ability to handle physically demanding as well as emotionally intense roles make him an interesting choice for such an ambitious film. More details about the supporting cast, production schedule and release plans are expected to be announced later.

Sanjay Leela Bhansali Backs the Ambitious Project

Acclaimed filmmaker Sanjay Leela Bhansali will produce the film, adding further weight to the collaboration. Bhansali is widely associated with visually elaborate productions, detailed filmmaking and emotionally rich narratives. His involvement suggests that the mythological jungle saga could be mounted on an expansive cinematic scale. Industry circles believe the project could become one of the most notable collaborations between Bollywood and South Indian cinema in recent years, bringing together major creative talent from different industries.

PS Mithran Prepares for His Hindi Debut

The film is equally significant for PS Mithran, as it marks his Hindi directorial debut. Mithran has established himself through films such as Irumbu Thirai and Sardar, earning recognition for combining commercial entertainment with relevant social themes. This project provides him with an opportunity to work on a much larger canvas while exploring mythology and adventure. Vijayendra Prasad is also associated with the story of Varanasi, reportedly being directed by his son SS Rajamouli with Mahesh Babu. With Prasad handling the story, Dhanush leading the cast, Mithran directing and Bhansali producing, the upcoming film has emerged as a highly anticipated pan-Indian project. Further official announcements are awaited.
