There are several speculations about the next film of Prabhas right from the day the project got announced. Nag Ashwin is the director and Deepika Padukone will romance Prabhas in this interesting big-budget film. The makers are currently finalizing the lead technicians for this project. The regular shoot will commence from April next year. There are several ongoing discussions about the music composer from some time.

MM Keeravani is the frontrunner in the race and AR Rahman too is considered. One of them will be finalized at the earliest and both these composers have experience of composing music for Bollywood projects. As the film is a pan Indian project, Nag Ashwin feels that the music has to appeal to wider sections of audience of all the languages. Mickey J Meyer who worked for Mahanati too was considered but he was kept aside as Prabhas21 is a pan Indian film. Nag Ashwin is in plans to complete the music sittings during this break. He already completed the script work of the film. C Ashwini Dutt is the producer of Prabhas21 which is aimed for 2022 release.

‘Industry Hit’ was the target for every Telugu filmmaker before the release of Baahubali. After its release, everyone targetted non-Baahubali records but no one aimed at reaching Baahubali records. National award-winning filmmaker Nag Ashwin is now targeting Baahubali with his next film that features Prabhas in the lead role. An official announcement about the project was made yesterday. Telugu360 collected some exclusive information about the project.

The film is said to be a periodic film tipped with a folk backdrop. Nag Ashwin is said to have been inspired by yesteryear classics like ‘Pathala Bhairavi’ and penned an interesting script. It all started after the release of Mahanati and he developed the script considering Megastar Chiranjeevi in the lead role. After the script attained a good shape, Ashwin felt that Prabhas would be the perfect fit for the film and he approached Prabhas. The top actor gave a positive nod on the spot and asked him to work on the full draft.

Ashwini Dutt is said to collaborate with a top Bollywood production house to execute the project. The estimated budget of this film is said to be Rs 200 crores. The film is said to be a package of several surprises and Nag Ashwin will make sure that the audience will have a visual feast.
