I am in touch with Prashanth (Neel, director) But the fact that we are releasing with Hirani sir and Shah Rukh sir's film, leave everything else, as a film lover I love it! I am excited that during the holiday season, you have two giant films, by two giant filmmakers, starring two big stars, and diamterically opposite in every possible parameter like the story and narrative.’

He added, ‘I am going to be watching both, I can promise you that. I am so looking forward to it. When did this last happen, that over a holiday season, we had two such big films. What better year than 2023 to celebrate Indian cinema like this.’

They wrote, ‘Wishing 'Vardharaja Mannaar' THE KING @PrithviOfficial, a majestic birthday (sic).

Actor Mohanlal is going to join the shoot soon.

Speaking with Hindustan Times, the actor said, ‘I had met with an accident filming an action sequence for one of my films and after the knee surgery, I was resting for three months. Given the workaholic that I am, I wanted to get back. There's a big crew on set, and Mohanlal joins soon, it's going to be a party.’
