Actor Vicky Kaushal will feature in "Ashwatthama", playing the titular mythological Mahabharata character who was given the curse of immortality.
In February this year, it was also announced that "Baahubali" writer KV Vijayendra Prasad will write the upcoming multilingual film "Sita- The Incarnation".
In 2019, it was announced that "Chhichhore" helmer Nitesh Tiwari will direct a "Ramayana" trilogy. There has been no update on the film''s progress or casting.
