After receiving a mixed response for Indian 2 and Game Changer, director S. Shankar has now decided to focus completely on his ambitious historical film Velpari. Though fans are still eagerly waiting for updates on Indian 3, strong industry reports suggest that Velpari has now become his top priority.
Sources from the film industry say that a leading producer has almost been finalised for the project. Discussions are currently underway to lock the film’s massive budget, as it is expected to be mounted on a very grand scale. The makers are planning high production values, large sets, detailed costumes, and advanced visual effects to bring the historical story to life.
Velpari is said to be based on a legendary Tamil king and will showcase rich history, culture, and powerful storytelling. The film is being planned as a big cinematic spectacle that could appeal not only to Indian audiences but also to viewers worldwide. Shankar is known for his larger-than-life filmmaking style, and this project is expected to reflect that strength once again.
Many in the industry believe that Velpari is a crucial film in Shankar’s career. After the lukewarm performance of his recent projects, this movie is seen as his opportunity to prove his creative power again and make a strong comeback on the global stage.
Fans are now eagerly waiting for official announcements about the lead actors, supporting cast, music director, and shooting schedule. With the scale and ambition attached to Velpari, expectations are already very high.
