Mahakali is the third film in the Prasanth Varma Cinematic Universe. The HanuMan director Prasanth Varma is the showrunner while Puja Aparna is directing the movie.
It is produced by Rizwan Ramesh Duggal under RKD Studios and presented by RK Duggal. Bollywood actor Akshaye Khanna will be seen in a powerful role as Shukracharya, marking his Telugu debut.
Today, the makers revealed the film’s main character, Maha. With her face painted in red and black, sacred white patterns symbolizing divine strength, and intense eyes that pierce the dark, Bhoomi looks fierce and divine.
Her transformation reflects the team’s effort to make everything look real and impactful. Casting a new actress highlights their aim to capture the true spirit of Mahakali.
The shoot is currently going on, and post-production work is moving quickly.
