Raghava Lawrence’s much-celebrated horror comedy franchise Kanchana (Muni) is likely to get its 5th installment soon. As per ongoing reports, the makers of the film have roped in actors Pooja Hegde and Nora Fatehi for the leading roles in the movie.
As per a report by Hindustan Times, both Pooja Hegde and Nora Fatehi have given their nods to the project with an official confirmation yet to be made. Moreover, the report also specified that the film will be directed by Lawrence himself who is likely to play the protagonist similar to previous ventures.
Additionally, another report by Track Tollywood specifies that the movie would be made on a grand scale, making it a pan-Indian venture. However, an official confirmation about the same is yet to be made by the makers and the actors.
Earlier in the day, there were several reports that Mrunal Thakur might be playing the lead role in the horror comedy franchise’s upcoming installment. However, this was later debunked by the actress and Raghava Lawrence.
The Muni/Kanchana film series was created by Raghava Lawrence back in 2007. The first installment titled Muni featured the tale of Ganesh, a young man with phasmophobia who gets possessed by a spirit as the latter wants to exact revenge on the people who killed him.
Following the same, the actor-director further went on to make four installments to date, namely – Muni 2: Kanchana, Muni 3: Kanchana 2: Ganga, and Muni 4: Kanchana 3. While the premise and characterization of each installment stay the same, the movies are spiritual successors and do not interlink in any manner aside from similar actors.
Moving ahead, Raghava Lawrence was last seen playing the lead role in the 2023 film Jigarthanda DoubleX. The movie directed by Karthik Subbaraj was a prequel to his own movie Jigarthanda starring Siddharth and Bobby Simha.
Furthermore, Raghava Lawrence is next set to appear in movies like Adhigaram, Bullet, and the Lokesh Kanagaraj Cinematic Universe (LCU) film Benz.
