Bollywood star Vicky Kaushal's career is running at peak and he is becoming the first choice of filmmakers for all kinds of characters. A legendary character was missing from his filmography, but now that too has been added to the wiki account. Horror Universe producer Dinesh Vijan has announced his new film in which Vicky is going to play Parashuram, the sixth avatar of Lord Vishnu. On Wednesday, the makers shared the first glimpse.
Vicky Kaushal to become 'Mahawatar' Dinesh Vijan's production house Maddock Films announced Vicky Kaushal starrer 'Mahavatar' on social media on Wednesday. In the announcement video, the look of Vicky Kaushal in the role of Parashuram has been revealed.
The wiki poster reads, 'The story of Chiranjeevi Parashuram, the eternal warrior of Dharma.' Along with Vicky's look, the poster has also revealed the release date of the film. 'Mahavatar' will hit the big screen in Christmas 2026. The post said that the film will be directed by Amar Kaushik who recently made the blockbuster 'Stree 2'.
Finally Wiki Becomes 'Chiranjeevi' After the massive success of 'Uri: The Surgical Strike', director Aditya Dhar planned another big film with Vicky. Aditya announced the mythological film 'Ashwathama' based on the Mahabharata character Ashwatthama. But after the lockdown, the film got shelved and finally Aditya said that Indian cinema is not yet ready to fulfill his vision for the project. In such a situation, Vicky, who started training to play the character of Aswatthama, was shocked. But finally now Vicky got her first mythological film 'Mahawatar'.
Parashurama is one of the Chiranjeevi mentioned in Hindu mythology along with Lord Hanuman and Ashwatthama. The story of Parashuram is in both Ramayana and Mahabharata. His story spans from North India to South India. It will be very exciting for the fans to see Vicky Kaushal in this role.
