Ashwin wrote: “Dear Mr. @anandmahindra… we are shooting an Indian sci-fi film starring Mr. Bachchan, Prabhas and Deepika called #ProjectK. A few vehicles that we build for this world are unique and beyond today’s technology…if this film does what it is supposed to do, it will be the pride of our nation.”
Asking for Mahindra’s support, Ashwin continued, “I admire you greatly, sir. We have a talented all Indian team of engineers and designers. But the scope of the project is so big that we could use a hand. A film like this has never been attempted before… we would be honored if you could help us create the future.”
In February 2020, the project was officially announced via a special video released to celebrate the 50th anniversary of Vyjayanthi Films, the creators of the film.
