Author Clarifies: No Film Deal for Shiva Trilogy

Rumors circulating on social media regarding a film adaptation of Amish Tripathi's 'Shiva Trilogy' have been officially debunked by the author. Reports had suggested that actor Ranveer Singh had acquired the rights for a potential cinematic trilogy, with Singh slated to portray Lord Shiva. However, Tripathi has firmly stated that no such agreement has been finalized. He clarified that the film rights for the 'Shiva Trilogy' remain solely with him, and no deal has been signed with any party. Tripathi also conveyed his high regard for Ranveer Singh, calling him one of India's finest actors, but reiterated that the news of the rights acquisition was inaccurate. The 'Shiva Trilogy' comprises three books: 'The Immortals of Meluha,' 'The Secret of the Nagas,' and 'The Oath of the Vayuputras.' This fantasy series reimagines Hindu mythology, focusing on Shiva's journey as a prophesied savior in the empire of Meluha. Meanwhile, Ranveer Singh is currently promoting his recently released film 'Dhurandhar 2,' directed by Aditya Dhar, which opened in theaters on March 19.
