Mumbai, June 12 - In 2021, it was revealed that director Rakeysh Omprakash Mehra was working on his dream project "Karna", based on one of the most complex characters of the epic Mahabharata. The movie went to many actors but things didn't work out and the movie was put on hold.

Now, the latest reports suggest that the much-awaited project is back on track with a new actor. According to Pinkvilla, director Rakeysh Omprakash Mehra is in advanced talks with Tamil superstar Suriya to play this larger-than-life role.



It is said that Suriya and Mehra already had multiple meetings and things are moving in the right direction quickly. The movie will be made in two parts and Suriya is said to be super excited to be a part of this magnum opus project.

The film is expected to go on floors in 2024 after Suriya completes director Siva's Pan India movie "Kanguva" which is nearing its completion and Sudha Kongara's next which is expected to go on floors later this year. Meanwhile, Suriya's "Vaadivasal" with director Vetrimaaran has reportedly been pushed further and will take more time in going on floors.

Mehra's "Karna" will mark Suriya's debut in Bollywood. It will be a Pan India release as a rough blue-print of ROMP’s vision to mount the film is already reportedly in place and it's all about executing the same to perfection now.
