Ranveer Singh to begin shooting Pralay next month; to take paternity leave after second child's birth: Report

The zombie thriller will pause after its first schedule so Ranveer Singh can take paternity leave following the birth of his second child, Variety India reported.

  • Actor Ranveer Singh will begin filming his upcoming zombie thriller Pralay next month, directed by Jai Mehta. The project marks a shift into a new genre for the 40-year-old star.
  • Following the first schedule, Singh will take paternity leave to spend time with his family after welcoming his second child. He and Deepika Padukone announced in April this year they were expecting.
  • Production will continue until Diwali before pausing for the actor's leave. The screenplay, co-written by Mehta and Vishal Kapoor, is expected to resume its second schedule in 2027.
  • Mounted on a budget of around Rs 300 crore, the project represents Singh's costliest standalone film. Plot details remain largely under wraps for this ambitious venture into mainstream Hindi cinema.
  • This project follows the commercial success of the Dhurandhar franchise, which strengthened Singh's popularity in recent years. The release timeline remains unconfirmed as production pauses for the upcoming family milestone.
