Prabhas after successful films like Salaar and Kalki 2898 AD is set to star in an exciting new project with director Hanu Raghavapudi. The much-anticipated project titled Fauji produced by Mythri Movie Makers has officially launched today. The film which has been generating significant buzz for a while, is now in the spotlight as photos from the opening event have gone viral on social media.
Coming to the cast details of the film, joining Prabhas is actress Imanvi. With photos of her going viral on social media, a name that’s unfamiliar to many has started trending—Iman Esmail.
Iman Esmail aka Imanvi hails from Pakistan and is making her Tollywood debut with this film. At the launch event, Imanvi’s visuals quickly caught attention with many social media users comparing her looks to the late actress Soundarya. Discussions have already begun predicting that she might become the next big heroine in Tollywood.
Director Hanu Raghavapudi is known for presenting his actresses beautifully and Imanvi appears to benefit from this as well. Despite her Pakistani origins, Imanvi has settled in Delhi and is known to be a talented dancer and actress with a solid online following.
Other than Prabhas and Imanvi, veteran actor Mithun Chakraborty will also be part of the film, while iconic actress Jaya Prada is set to play a crucial role in Fauji.
More About Fauji
The film is rumored to be a period drama set during the time of Subhash Chandra Bose’s rule, with Prabhas portraying an army officer in this romantic tale. Mythri Movie Makers is going all out to produce this film on a grand scale, with a large set being constructed at Ramoji Film City where most of the shooting will take place. The music for the film is composed by Vishal Chandrasekhar, who has reportedly completed three songs.
The official synopsis of Fauji reads: “Not every historical event resonates with our emotions and thoughts, but this story is written by a warrior to bring justice to the people of his Mother Land. This historical fiction/alternate history set in the 1940s tells the tale of a warrior who rises from the shadows, emerging from a society that believed war was the only answer to the buried injustices and forgotten truths that history kept hidden from the world.”
Upcoming Projects for Prabhas
Beyond Fauji, Prabhas has several projects lined up. He will make a cameo in Vishnu Manchu’s film Kannappa, which also features Akshay Kumar, Mohanlal, and Kajal Aggarwal. He is currently working on a horror-comedy titled The Raja Saab, directed by Maruthi, alongside Nidhhi Agerwal and Malavika Mohanan. Additionally, Prabhas will soon begin shooting for the sequel to Salaar, reuniting with his co-stars Prithviraj Sukumaran and Shruti Haasan.
