Ranveer Singh and South Director Shankar would be soon collaborating on a project together. This was reported around a month back. And now, we hear that these two will be joined by one of the very biggest pan-Indian cinematic events of contemporary times, the veteran film producer Dr. Jayantilal Gada of Pen Studios. This project will be the adaptation of Anniyan that is a cult blockbuster. These creative mammoths are coming together for the very first time.

In recent times, this is looking like one of the biggest director-actor collaborations. Shankar, as a director, is known for his path-breaking larger-than-life vision, and Bollywood superstar Ranveer Singh has taken the audience back with some of the most unforgettable and impactful characters on screen. This project is going to be an unprecedented coup. This is going to be an official adaptation of the cult movie Annniyan, which will be presented on a gigantic canvas of cinema. It seems like this is one of the most anticipated pan-Indian cinematic events of our time, and it is definitely promising.

This project is still unnamed and will be announced around Baisakhi in North India, which happens to be an auspicious time, and Puthandu in Tamil Nadu, which marks the New Year Celebrations in these respective calendars. This definitely serves the intent of making the movie an all-India entertainer and it is going to be enthralling. It is slated to go to the floor during Mid-2022. The co-producers are God Bless Entertainment and music by the film by Saregama.

All the personnel attached to this project consider themselves to be lucky and they have said so too! Something director Shankar was found saying is, “For it to be made into a Hindi film, Anniyan needed a maverick, charismatic showman like no other to play the part. I found this in the mercurial Ranveer Singh because he is a once-in-a-generation actor who has shown us that he can immortalize a character through his stellar performance. I’m thrilled to make Anniyan for the pan-Indian audience and I’m confident that this powerful story will strike a chord in the hearts of all. In Dr. Gada, Ranveer and I have found an ideal producer who believes in the vision we have to change the nativity of content for audiences across the country.”

To which, Ranveer Singh was found saying, “I am blessed to have this opportunity to be a part of the spectacular cinematic vision of Shankar Sir. He is an exception to the norm, a true disruptor who has shown us that no vision is large enough to achieve on screen. I had always hoped and dreamed that I would get a chance to collaborate with him, and I have a strong feeling that we will create magic together.”

It will truly be a pleasure to watch them all come together!
