Sidharth Malhotra has unveiled his latest cinematic venture, a folk thriller titled “Vvan – Force of the Forest.” Alongside the announcement, a motion poster has been made public, teasing audiences with anticipation for the film’s release scheduled for Chhath in 2025. While further specifics about the project remain undisclosed, the early reactions indicate a positive outlook.

According to reports from India Today, talented actress Sara Ali Khan is set to join the cast as the leading lady. Sources indicate that production is slated to commence in 2025. This partnership marks a new chapter for both actors, who have not collaborated on-screen previously. In addition, Pinkvilla cited an insider mentioning that “Vvan” promises to weave a high-drama narrative enriched by Hindu mythology, aiming to deliver a cinematic experience reminiscent of the acclaimed film “Kantara.” With Sidharth expected to receive the final narration of the script in November, the production team hopes to kick off filming in the latter half of 2025, contingent upon Sidharth’s confirmation post-narration.
In parallel to this project, Sidharth Malhotra is reportedly in advanced discussions to star in “Race 4,” alongside Saif Ali Khan.
