Shahid Kapoor in Rakeysh Omprakash Mehra’s adaptation of ‘Mahabharata’?

Shahid Kapoor is certainly on a roll with back-to-back projects after the super success of ‘Kabir Singh’ in 2019.

The actor, who will be next seen in ‘Jersey’, is also preparing his digital debut with Raj-Dk’s next on Amazon Prime Video.

Latest buzz suggests that Kapoor has given his nod to another huge project – Rakeysh Omprakash Mehra’s adaptation of ‘Mahabharata’. The film will be told from Karna’s view. Reportedly, Kapoor will be seen playing Karan in the film.

Box Office Worldwide cited a source saying, “Rakeysh Omprakash Mehra has always wanted to make a film on Karna. It’s a subject he has been toying with for a long time but couldn’t give it a shape due to the budget and scale it requires. With Ronnie Screwvala coming on board as producer, and Shahid Kapoor leading the cast, Mehra is now all set to liven up his passion project.”
