To protect Prahlad and defeat the tyrant, Vishnu appeared as Narsimha, who is in a half-man, half-lion form. Mahavatar Narsimha is the first instalment in what is being introduced as the Mahavatar Cinematic Universe, which is a long-term film series dedicated to telling the stories of Lord Vishnu's avatars. The franchise has been planned as a seven-part journey unfolding over 12 years. The upcoming titles include Mahavatar Parshuram in 2027, Mahavatar Raghunandan in 2029, Mahavatar Dwarkadhish in 2031, Mahavatar Gokulananda in 2033, Mahavatar Kalki Part 1 in 2035 and Mahavatar Kalki Part 2 in 2037. What's Next For Ashish Chanchlani? Coming back to Ashish Chanchlani, apart from his reaction to the film, he also made headlines for a picture he posted with actor Elli AvrRam, which led to widespread speculation about their relationship status. The two later clarified that the photo was part of a promotional campaign for their music video Chandaniya and that they are not dating. The duo went live on Instagram after the release to address the rumours and apologised to fans. They said they didn't expect the rumours to become 'so big." Looking ahead, Ashish is gearing up for his next project, a series titled Ekaki. This new venture moves away from his usual comedy-based content and focuses on both horror and humour. He is closely involved in the project as he takes on the roles of writer, actor, director and producer. Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's.
