Overview
- Multiple trade reports say principal photography for Pralay is expected to start in September 2026 with a large portion of the shoot planned in Australia.
- The project is reported to be budgeted at about ₹300 crore, which would make it one of Ranveer Singh’s most expensive standalone films to date.
- Sources describe Pralay as a dystopian zombie survival story set in Mumbai that centers on a married couple and will rely heavily on VFX and detailed world‑building.
- Reporting names Jai Mehta as director and cites Kalyani Priyadarshan as the likely female lead, but the makers have not issued an official casting or production announcement.
- The production updates come alongside the recent Don 3 dispute involving Ranveer Singh and a temporary FWICE non‑cooperation directive that was later withdrawn after legal action, a development that could affect industry relations and scheduling.
