Speaking about the film to DNA, Aditya Roy Kapur had said, “Last year I was juggling between shooting Malang and Ludo around this time and both the films have received immense love and appreciation. COVID notwithstanding those years has been a special one on the work front. I have been living with OM for a few months now and to see it being announced on my birthday makes it extremely special. Looking forward to the journey.”
The film was announced on November 16, the same day as Kapur’s 35th birthday. The remaining cast members have yet to be announced.
Om: The Battle Within is being produced by Zee Studios, as well as Ahmed Khan and Shaira Khan.
