Actor Rana Daggubati's Telugu magnum opus 'Hiranyakashyap' has taken a backseat due to the ongoing coronavirus pandemic, confirmed director Gunasekhar over the weekend. Taking to Twitter to make the announcement, Gunasekhar wrote, “Amidst this global pandemic, despite 'Hiranyakashyap' pre-production work completed, the massive scale shoot will take off later than anticipated. In the meantime, I've embarked on another film.”
Rumours emerged last December that the project has been shelved. However, the actor later clarified the project will take off from mid-2020. On the work front, Daggubati awaits the release of his upcoming Telugu film 'Virataparvam', in which he's rumoured to be playing a cop. Directed by Venu Udugala, 'Virataparvam' also stars Sai Pallavi, Priyamani, and Nandita Das in important roles.
