Two of the country’s top filmmakers, Aamir Khan and Rajamouli, had expressed interest in making a magnum opus based on the epic Mahabharat. While Aamir is said to have changed his plans and turned Mahabharat into a web-series, Rajamouli has always maintained that he will need at least 10 years to complete the project.

Now, neither Aamir nor Rajamouli, but it’s acclaimed Bollywood filmmaker Rakeysh Omprakash Mehra who is all set to direct a film on Mahabharat. The Rang De Basanti director has even registered the title Mahabharat: The Greatest Battle Ever Fought with the IMPPA in Mumbai. More details about Rakeysh’s version of Mahabharat are awaited.
