Hanu Raghavapudi, known for his impeccable ability to showcase the beautiful chemistry between lead pairs, is gearing up for his biggest and most ambitious project yet. After impressing audiences with the stunning on-screen pairs of Sharwanand & Sai Pallavi in Padi Padi Leche Manasu and Dulquer Salmaan & Mrunal Thakur in Sita Ramam, Raghavapudi is set to captivate once again with his latest film featuring Rebel Star Prabhas.
Tentatively titled Fauji, this action-drama set against a period backdrop marks Raghavapudi’s largest and costliest venture. The film is currently in production, with a key addition to the cast—social media influencer turned actress, Iman Esmail, also known as Imanvi. Born in Karachi, Pakistan, and raised in California, USA, Imanvi is making her feature film debut alongside Prabhas.
Sources close to the film unit have revealed exciting details about the chemistry between Prabhas and Imanvi. The team is highly impressed with their on-screen pairing, with early sequences showcasing an incredible dynamic. The filmmakers are confident that this pair will not only grab attention during promotions but will also become one of the most beloved on-screen couples once the film hits theatres next year. Imanvi has also shown her dancing skills in a recently shot song, further adding to her potential to shine in the film.
Produced on a grand scale by Mythri Movie Makers, Fauji boasts a stellar team, including music by Vishal Chandrashekhar. The film’s title will be revealed soon, and it is set to release in theatres by the end of 2025.
