Filmmaker Prasanth Varma and actor Ranveer Singh made headlines this past week due to their alleged rift. The duo was poised to collaborate on the film ‘Rakshas’, but speculations emerged that the project might be shelved.
To address the rumors, the ‘Hanu-Man’ director and ‘Gully Boy’ star released a joint statement.
The statement confirms that the project is no longer part of either of their schedules, and they have decided to part ways due to creative differences. Singh wrote, “Prasanth is a very special talent. We met and explored the idea of a film together. Hopefully, we will collaborate on something exciting in the future.” Adding to this, Prasanth wrote, “Ranveer’s energy and talent is rare to find. We shall manifest our forces combining soon, sometime in the future.” The statement clarified that despite their creative differences, the duo and Mythri Movie Makers believed that it wasn’t the right time for the project, even though “everybody’s intentions were right.”
