The highly anticipated film, ‘Project K’, directed by Nag Ashwin and starring Amitabh Bachchan, Prabhas, Deepika Padukone, and Kamal Haasan in important roles, has created immense excitement among fans. Scheduled to have its grand launch at the Comic-Con Film Festival on July 20, the sci-fi action entertainer promises to deliver an unparalleled cinematic experience to the Indian audience. According to reports, Amitabh Bachchan’s character in the movie draws inspiration from Ashwathama, a character from the Mahabharata, and plays a pivotal role in Nag Ashwin’s narrative.
Recent industry buzz suggests that the much-awaited mega-budget epic has been titled ‘KaalChakra’. Speculation is rife that the title is in sync with the film’s subject and carries a mythological connection. KaalChakra symbolizes the wheel of time and represents creation and destruction. It signifies the passage of time, with Lord Krishna as a guiding force. Several theories circulating on social media over the past few months have hinted at Prabhas‘ character having traits of Lord Krishna or possibly portraying the role of Karna from the Mahabharata.
The film is reportedly rooted in the Mahabharata but takes place in a futuristic space within the realm of superheroes. The makers have kept details about the movie closely guarded, with the final title set to be revealed on July 20. KaalChakra is a potential title under consideration, along with other possibilities like Kurukshetra. ‘Project K’ is poised to be the most highly anticipated release of 2024. Sources indicate that the film is scheduled for a summer release, likely between April and June.
Amid the frenzy surrounding the film, fans now eagerly await the trailer launch on July 21, which will provide further insights into Prabhas’ character and confirm whether he embodies Lord Krishna or Karna. The authenticity of the reported title, KaalChakra, also remains unverified as it originates from industry speculation and chatter.
