Ranveer Singh is all set to headline a massive post apocalyptic zombie thriller titled Pralay. This is huge news for fans who have been waiting to see the superstar in a never seen before avatar.
The film will reportedly go on floors between July and August 2026. However, Ranveer Singh will first complete the shooting of Don 3, which is being directed by Farhan Akhtar. Once that wraps up, the actor will dive straight into this ambitious zombie thriller. The final timeline will be locked in January after Ranveer gets his Don 3 schedule.
A Reimagined Mumbai Like The Hunger Games
What makes Pralay very interesting is its unique setting and world building. The film will reportedly show Mumbai in a completely devastated and abandoned state. It is being compared to The Hunger Games style setup, where the city will be digitally transformed to look aged and destroyed.
The makers are planning to use a mix of physical sets and artificial intelligence extensions. Large sections of Mumbai will be digitally recreated to give the city an apocalyptic look. Parts of the film will be shot in Mumbai itself, before the team moves to other locations for additional sequences.
The Story Behind The Zombie Thriller
Pralay reportedly follows Ranveer Singh’s character as he fights for survival in this post apocalyptic world. Director Jai Mehta is using the zombie thriller framework to explore deeper themes like social collapse, emotional breakdown, and moral dilemmas. This is not just going to be an action packed film, but also a story with strong emotional depth.
The combination of Ranveer Singh’s powerful screen presence and Jai Mehta’s storytelling skills has already created massive excitement. Fans are eager to see how this unique project unfolds on screen.
Jai Mehta Makes His Big Screen Debut
Director Jai Mehta is the son of acclaimed filmmaker Hansal Mehta. He co directed the massive hit web series Scam 1992: The Harshad Mehta Story with his father, which became one of the highest rated Indian shows ever. He also directed the web series Lootere.
Pralay will mark Jai Mehta’s feature film debut. Having a fresh director with proven storytelling skills teaming up with a superstar like Ranveer Singh makes this project even more exciting. The fact that big producers are backing this film shows their confidence in the director and the script.
