It is known that Prabhas and director Maruthi decided to collaborate for a film months ago. The movie is a supernatural action thriller that will take four months to be shot. Only in July, producer DVV Danayya confirmed that the untitled project will go on the floors sometime in September.

But a rumour surfaced today that the 'RRR' producer has opted out of the project after paying the 'Radhe Shyam' actor a hefty advance amount. It is not known what are the exact reasons for Danayya calling it quits. In all probability, he is not confident that the project will take off and get completed in time.

It has to be seen which producer will step into Danayya's shoes now.

The Maruthi directorial is a quickie compared to the other Prabhas films since 'Baahubali'. It has to be seen when it will be released in theatres, considering 'Adipurush' and 'Salaar' are already confirmed for 2023. If this one, too, releases next year, it will be a three-film year, a complete rarity in Prabhas' filmography.
