Filmmaker Karan Johar who had earlier said that he intends to make a film on 'The Immortals Of Meluha' a best selling book by Amish Tripathi, opines that the film will be a great leap for Dharma Productions .
He was present at the launch of the book's third edition, 'The Oath Of Vayuptra' where he said that he has finally made his production team and making this film will be the biggest challenge of Dharma Productions .
He stated at the event, "Internally we have gone through the processes of finding out who the perfect team will be to write this film because adapting this book into a script and putting it out on celluloid, is really a daunting task. It's not a film you can commission to a writer and it will be ready in two or three months. It probably will be the biggest challenge Dharma Productions has ever taken on so we needed to get it right. Recently we zeroed in on in what we believe may be the potential team for 'The Immortals Of Meluha',"
He also added, "There are lots of verticals that are involved, the work is in progress, I had a big meeting yesterday and we have these meetings periodically because this film is a passion project, it's not just another film, it's a game changer for Dharma Productions . If we manage to make 'The Immortals of Meluha' and put it up in the best cinematic way and create a franchise of it cinematically, I think it will be a first for any production house in the country,"
