Tanhaji fame director Om Raut recently announced that he will be teaming up with Prabhas for his next film Adipurush, based on Ramayana. Saif Ali Khan was also roped in to play Lankesh, based on Ravana.

Several reports of a number of top actresses being roped in to play the role of Sita have been doing rounds. Names like Urvashi Rautela, Kiara Advani were doing the rounds but all the reports got refuted.

Now the latest buzz is that Anushka Sharma has been finalised opposite Prabhas for this magnum opus. However, there’s a bad news to all the fans who went gaga over this duo coming together as the reports of Anushka joining the star cast of Adipurush are not true.

It is known to everyone that Anushka Sharma and Virat Kohli are expecting their first child. The Indian cricketer has also made it clear that they are all set to welcome a baby in January 2021. Virat posted on Instagram on August 27, “And then, we were three! Arriving Jan 2021.”

The makers of Adipurush have announced that the flick will go on floors in January 2021 and they are planning to complete its entire shoot by early summer.

Considering their plans and her due date, the producers won’t be roping in Anushka Sharma for the female lead for the mega-budget project as it may delay their production plans.

Seems like the suspense of who is going to pair up opposite Baahubali Prabhas as Sita is going to be continued for quite some time.

Meanwhile, fans have to wait for some more time to see the Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi star on the big screen again.

Anushka Sharma was last seen in Shah Rukh Khan’s Zero in 2018. But she is a hit machine as a producer, with two web series Paatal Lok and Bulbbul on OTT platforms which have received both critical and commercial success
