Actor Vijay Varma recently delighted his fans by sharing a picture of a stylish hamper along with a handwritten note on his Instagram story, confirming his collaboration with the popular director Hansal Mehta. He captioned it as ‘new beginnings’ and was also spotted at the muhurat puja for the same. Hansal Mehta’s project is expected to be a web series featuring two rival business tycoons, Vijay Varma and Anil Kapoor. This Netflix drama is a story of power, money, and morals. Reportedly, the shooting will soon begin in Sri Lanka.

Hansal Mehta apparently visited Sri Lanka last month for a recce of the locations where the web series is to be shot. A report in Mid-Day quoted a source saying, “Hansal and Vikram are keeping everything under wraps. With Anil and Vijay playing high-flying business magnates, the series will be shot across Mumbai, Sri Lanka, Serbia, and Georgia. The series, written by Niren Bhatt, Ankur Pathak, and Nikhil Nair, is an incisive look at the cut-throat nature of today’s financial world, where money, manipulation, and greed are part of the game.”

It also added, “Anil and Vijay’s characters, though ruthless in their individual pursuit of power and wealth, are shown to have contrasting ideologies and work ethics. That sets the stage for a showdown, and the story follows how they take on each other. If things go as planned, it will be shot in a straight schedule from June to September.”

After exploring the genre of real-life stories, Hansal Mehta is ready to explore the world of fiction. “While the West has had sterling business dramas, Indian OTT entertainment hasn’t quite explored the genre. Hansal and Vikram wanted to tap into the genre by weaving a tale of ambition and betrayal,” the source mentioned.
