Ranveer Singh’s Survival Spectacle ‘Pralay’, Directed by Jai Mehta and Produced by Ananya Birla’s Birla Studios, Goes on Floors Today!

The world as you know it will end in ‘Pralay’… Get ready to witness the fight for humanity’s survival!

Headlined by #RanveerSingh, Pralay, an ambitious new end-of-the-world action thriller, has officially gone on floors in Mumbai, marking the start of principal photography on one of the most audacious and scale-defining cinematic ventures in Indian cinema.

The film marks Ranveer Singh’s next major motion picture following Dhurandhar and Dhurandhar – The Revenge, which emerged as the highest-grossing film of all time. With Pralay, the actor once again ventures into an unexplored and disruptive cinematic landscape. Widely regarded as one of the finest performers of his generation, Ranveer not only headlines the film but also serves as a producer on a story that demands both physical intensity and emotional conviction.

For Ananya Birla, Pralay, a Birla Studios production, reflects her vision to push the boundaries of cinema as a creative catalyst collaborating with modern game-changers in India.

For Hansal Mehta and Sahil Saigal’s True Story Films, it embodies a belief in creating high-impact, disruptive content—an ethos at the very core of this project.

Pralay also stars Lokah breakout actress Kalyani Priyadarshan in a pivotal role, bringing together an exciting mix of acclaimed talent.

Bringing together an extraordinary ensemble of creative and technical talent from India and around the globe, Pralay is directed by Jai Mehta, whose work on Scam 1992: The Harshad Mehta Story (co-directed with Hansal Mehta) and Lootere earned widespread acclaim. The film plunges audiences into a relentless odyssey against the terrifying backdrop of an end-of-the-world catastrophe, promising a genre-defining experience that is both emotionally grounded and spectacular in scale.

Set against the unmistakable pulse and landscape of Mumbai, Pralay is an original story that marries breathtaking spectacle with a deeply human emotional core. At its heart lies a journey of survival, courage, and the instinct to fight for what matters most when the world begins to collapse.

The film is currently being shot at live locations in and around Mumbai, as the makers embrace real-world environments to bring heightened scale, texture, and realism to a world on the brink of annihilation.

Cameras are officially rolling on Pralay following several months of intensive, highly technical pre-production, cementing its position as one of the most anticipated Indian films on the horizon.
