Wamiqa Gabbi is reportedly cast in Prasanth Varma’s mythological action film “Jai Hanuman,” starring Rishab Shetty as Lord Hanuman. According to multiple reports, her character details are being kept under wraps as production continues in Hyderabad, with the film expected to begin shooting there soon.
Both outlets link the casting to Gabbi’s recent work in the Tamil film “DC,” which has received attention for her performance. Free Press Journal adds that the film is described as giving her a “prominent and powerful” role, while Times of India simply notes that specifics about her part have not been disclosed. The reports also describe “Jai Hanuman” as connected to the earlier superhero film “Hanu-Man,” with “Jai Hanuman” presented as a sequel exploring Hanuman’s role in Kaliyug.
While Times of India focuses mainly on the inclusion and production secrecy, Free Press Journal also provides additional context about “Hanu-Man”’s box-office response and Gabbi’s broader slate of upcoming projects.
