Last year, legendary actor Mukesh Khanna revealed hints regarding the upcoming film built around his Shaktimaan character. Last year, Sony Pictures introduced the project. It is anticipated that actor Ranveer Singh had been cast in the legendary role, which was to be directed by Basil Joseph. Tovino Thomas appears to have confirmed the same on his Instagram Live.
Tovino Thomas went live on Instagram a few days ago to mark the announcement of his film ‘2018’ as India’s official contender for the Oscars. Within seconds, Ranveer Singh had intervened in the Live by putting in comments and saying, “Love from Mumbai.” Tovino noticed his comment and thanked him. During this moment, Tovino began to share that he had just spoken with filmmaker Basil Joseph about how Ranveer would enjoy working with him.
Although the actor did not share the title of the project, he did imply that Ranveer and Basil are working on a project that will begin filming shortly. Ranveer added some more comments as well. “Who here wants Tovino x Ranveer?” he wrote in the live. “Wish I can perform alongside you someday. Would be amazing!” he wrote later.
Meanwhile, Tovino is rejoicing at the selection of 2018 for the Academy Awards. Set against the background of Kerala’s disastrous floods in 2018, the film, directed by Jude Anthany Joseph, stars Kunchacko Boban, Asif Ali, and Lal.
