Deepika Padukone's recent visit to the Maddock Films office sparked rumors that she's been offered two major projects, including a role in the StreeVerse. The actress, who's been enjoying motherhood, is reportedly being considered for the lead role of a mysterious Bengali ghost named Shaakhchuni in the expanding horror comedy universe.
According to reports, Deepika has been offered the role of Shaakhchuni, a powerful and eerie character central to the next chapter of the StreeVerse. She's also been offered the lead in a large scale fantasy epic. Deepika has shown interest in both projects but is waiting for the complete script before making a decision.
The Maddock Horror Comedy Universe (MHCU) began with the hit film Stree in 2018 and has since expanded with films like Bhediya, Munjya, Stree 2, and Thamma. Future projects include Shakti Shalini, Bhediya 2, Chamunda, Stree 3, Mahamunjya, Pehla Mahayudh, and Doosara Mahayudh. If Deepika joins the MHCU, it could bring a fresh vibe to the franchise, blending her star power with Maddock's supernatural storytelling.
Deepika's potential involvement in the StreeVerse marks a new phase in her career, showcasing her versatility as an actress. With her interest in the projects and the studio's enthusiasm, fans are eagerly waiting for an official announcement.
