In the last couple of months, Vicky Kaushal has been surprising us and giving us a small glimpse of his prep for his next big role – The Immortal Ashwatthama. For this superhero film with a twist of mythology, the actor has been working hard in the gym, beefing up his body and even learning archery and horse-riding.

While the actor has put his sweat and blood into it already, even before the shoot could begin, we now hear rather surprising things about the project. A news portal reports that the Vicky Kaushal starrer which was going to be a bit difficult to shoot amidst the pandemic, has now been shelved. The reason behind the film being shelved is the budget constraints. The sci-fi and superhero flick probably has a huge budget and owing to the current times, the film seems to be difficult to kickstart.

Ashwatthama has remained one of the most anticipated films in showbiz. The film was going to be directed by Aditya Dhar who directed Vicky and his wife Yami Gautam in Uri: The Surgical Strike. Rumours were rife that the film would have starred Sara Ali Khan opposite the actor.

Vicky Kaushal will now probably focus on his next, where he plays Field Marshal Sam Manekshaw. The actor even has Mr Lele in his kitty which stars Bhumi Pednekar and Kiara Advani.
