Prabhas, with the mammoth success of the multilingual Bahubali series, became a globally recognised superstar. Not just across South cinema, but Prabhas is the current heartthrob in Bollywood too. As filmmakers are considering him as a tough competitor to established stars in the Hindi film industry, the actor's stakes are high. Now, after Saaho, the buzz indicated that Prabhas is in talks for yet another multilingual film with Kabir Singh director Sandeep Reddy Vanga. The project, reportedly titled Devil, is touted to be a crime thriller, is backed by Bhushan Kumar under his banner T-Series.

However, a South-based production house, on their Twitter account, confirmed Prabhas' collaboration with Sandeep. With Sandeep and Bhushan teaming up with Prabhas, we can safely assume it must be for Devil, which is in talks for quite some time now. The official announcement of the film and its title is yet to be made. Along with Bhushan's T-Series, UV Creations will be financing it.

According to the initial rumours, Ranbir Kapoor was being considered as the top contender for the film. However, there was no official confirmation on the same.

Speaking of Sandeep, before venturing into Bollywood with Shahid Kapoor's-Kiara Advani's Kabir Singh, directed Vijay Deverakonda and Shalini Pandey in Arjun Reddy, which became the inspiration behind the former film. Prabhas made his Hindi language debut with Saaho starring Shraddha Kapoor.
