Ranveer Singh and Alia Bhatt set for epic reunion in Jay Mehta's directorial ‘Pralay’ - Report

Ranveer Singh and Alia Bhatt might team up again for a gripping post-apocalyptic film called Pralay. This comes after their hit chemistry in Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani. Industry buzz suggests producers want Alia to star as the leading lady alongside Ranveer, thrilling fans eager for more of their magic.

Director and story vision

Jai Mehta, acclaimed for his intense storytelling, helms 'Pralay', a film depicting a catastrophe-ravaged planet plunging humankind into turmoil. As quoted by Mid-Day, "The female lead is central to the narrative. She isn’t introduced as a love interest. She challenges the hero’s ideas in a collapsing world. Who could wield that power better than Bhatt? She brings credibility. In a film this experimental, you need powerhouses and actors the audience’s trust."

Third collaboration ahead

Ranveer and Alia could team up for the third time on screen, following their roles in ‘Gully Boy’ (2019) and the beloved ‘Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani’ (2023). ‘Pralay’ aims to start shooting in mid-2026, once Singh wraps up his packed slate, including the ‘Don 3’ reboot confirmed last month. The story unfolds in a grim dystopia, with survivors grappling with ethical choices, shortages, and clashes amid a zombie epidemic.

Early talks and fan excitement

As per the report, talks on Alia Bhatt's role are just beginning, with producers eager to confirm actors as pre-production picks up speed. A greenlit Ranveer-Alia duo would thrill movie lovers who relished their past vibe and crave it anew in an unfamiliar genre. ‘Pralay’ fuses high-octane action and gripping drama, ready to let both stars flex unexplored talents.
