According to Bala, the big budget film will be co-produced by Mukesh Ambani The superstar had earlier revealed that making a film on ‘Mahabharata’ was his dream, something he couldn’t do but I’m afraid of starting the project as I know it will consume at least 15-20 years of my life.
However, months later, rumours got stronger as Aamir allegedly opted out of a biopic on astronaut Rakesh Sharma, to focus on his ambitious project. Interestingly, a few months back, Fatima Sana Khan was reading The Mahabharata. It was evident from one of her Instagram posts. But following speculations of her role in the film, she reportedly removed it from Instagram. Ambani owns stake in Viacom 18 and has recently invested in production houses like Eros and Ekta Kapoor’s Balaji. He is also planning a Netflix-like offering on his famous Jio platform, on which Siddharth Roy Kapur is working on, bringing ‘Narcos’ co-creator Christopher Branchato for a writers’ masterclass recently. The report claimed that it was not yet clear if Ambani will get into full-fledged production with this massive project and in all probability it’s only a “one-off” project. mahabharata story:The Mahabharata is an ancient Indian epic where the main story revolves around two branches of a family – the Pandavas and Kauravas – who, in the Kurukshetra War, battle for the throne of Hastinapura.
