Ranveer Singh and Alia Bhatt To Reunite For Pralay Movie
After setting the box office on fire with his recent release, Ranveer Singh appears to be carefully reworking his upcoming slate. The actor, who was earlier expected to headline Farhan Akhtar’s Don 3, has reportedly stepped away from the project. Instead, industry buzz suggests that Ranveer is now channeling his energies into filmmaker Jai Mehta’s ambitious zombie survival drama Pralay.
Adding to the excitement, fresh reports indicate that Alia Bhatt is being considered for the female lead in the film. If finalized, Pralay would mark Ranveer and Alia’s third on-screen collaboration after Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani and Gully Boy, both of which were widely appreciated for their performances and chemistry. – Ranveer Singh and Alia Bhatt To Reunite For Pralay Movie
Alia Bhatt: The Makers’ First Choice?
According to industry insiders quoted in recent media reports, director Jai Mehta has Alia Bhatt at the top of his wishlist. The source revealed that the female protagonist in Pralay is not designed as a conventional romantic counterpart. Instead, she plays a pivotal role in driving the narrative forward.
“The character stands toe-to-toe with the hero in a world that is rapidly falling apart. She questions his choices and moral compass. For a film that pushes boundaries, you need an actor with gravitas and audience trust—and Alia brings both,” the source shared.
While formal discussions are yet to begin, the makers are reportedly planning to initiate talks early next year. The film is being developed as a gritty survival drama set against the backdrop of a near-apocalyptic Mumbai devastated by a mysterious outbreak. – Ranveer Singh and Alia Bhatt To Reunite For Pralay Movie
A Dark, Unforgiving World
Unlike typical zombie entertainers, Pralay is said to focus more on human conflict than spectacle. Sources describe the film’s universe as bleak and unforgiving, where survival comes at a moral cost. With resources scarce and danger lurking at every corner, each character is pushed to their limits, making the story more psychological than flashy.
“This isn’t a glossy zombie film. The world is cruel, and the characters are constantly forced to choose between survival and humanity,” the source added. – Ranveer Singh and Alia Bhatt To Reunite For Pralay Movie
What’s Next For Ranveer And Alia?
On the professional front, Ranveer Singh was last seen leading Aditya Dhar’s spy thriller Dhurandhar, which further strengthened his box-office standing. Meanwhile, Alia Bhatt is gearing up for Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s upcoming epic Love & War, where she will share screen space with Ranbir Kapoor and Vicky Kaushal. The film is slated for a 2026 release.
If Pralay materializes with Ranveer and Alia in the lead roles, fans can expect a powerful reunion—this time in a genre and setting unlike anything they have explored together before.
