On the megastar's birthday, the makers wished the actor by formally announcing the fantasy entertainer.
Taking to X, Vassishta thanked the megastar for giving him a chance and shared the poster of the film to mark the day.

The announcement poster had panchabhutas (five elements of nature) -- Earth, Water, Fire, Air and Sky -- encompassed in an object that has a star-shaped element with a trident in it.
The fantasy flick, which is the first of its kind signed by the megastar after a long while, will be directed by Vassishta, who made his directorial debut with 'Bimbisara'.
'Mega 156' is to be shot on a massive scale by V Vamsi Krishna Reddy, Pramod Uppalapati, and Vikram Reddy under the banner of UV Creations.
