As per a Pinkvilla report, the movie is expected to hit production by mid-2023. A source close to the development revealed the upcoming project is planned to make a spectacle for the global audience. The source added, “While the discussions are going on at regular intervals, the film will get into the full-fledged production stage around June or July 2023”.
