Hanu Raghavapudi’s Upcoming Film with Prabhas and Imanvi Promises Stellar Chemistry
Director Hanu Raghavapudi, renowned for his ability to create compelling on-screen chemistry between lead pairs, is set to impress audiences once again with his upcoming film, Fauji, starring Rebel Star Prabhas. Known for his work in Padi Padi Leche Manasu and Sita Ramam, where he brought together the dynamic pairs of Sharwanand & Sai Pallavi, and Dulquer Salmaan & Mrunal Thakur, Raghavapudi’s unique ability to capture love and connection on screen is highly anticipated in his biggest and costliest project yet.
Fauji is an action drama set against a period backdrop, and is currently in production. What sets the film apart is the pairing of Prabhas with debutant Iman Esmail, popularly known as Imanvi, a social media influencer turned actor. Imanvi, who was born in Karachi, Pakistan, and raised in California, is making her feature film debut alongside one of the biggest stars in Indian cinema.
According to sources close to the film, the chemistry between Prabhas and Imanvi has already impressed the film unit, particularly in the sequences shot so far. The team is confident that the pair’s on-screen partnership will capture the audience’s attention and emerge as one of the most memorable on-screen duos in recent times. Imanvi has also received praise for her performance, especially for her dance moves in a recent song shoot, with the entire team expressing satisfaction with her contribution to the film.
Produced on a grand scale by Mythri Movie Makers, Fauji promises to be a visual spectacle, complemented by music from Vishal Chandrashekhar. While the title of the film is expected to be revealed soon, the team is aiming for a theatrical release at the end of 2025, ensuring a long-awaited cinematic experience for fans of Prabhas and Raghavapudi’s storytelling.
