As Pralay is set to go on the floors soon, Ranveer was spotted at Jay's father, filmmaker Hansal Mehta's office. The actor made sure to cover his face with a mask and even hid his hair with a cap. As he exited the office premises, seemingly after a meeting for Pralay, he made sure to not reveal his look to the media. Ranveer's latest, low-key appearance sparked rumours of his look for Pralay. Some mentioned that the look in the movie may have been locked and Ranveer made sure to not let the cat out of the bag at this stage of pre-production.  

What is Pralay about?

Pralay is set in a post-apocalyptic world. It imagines a dystopian Mumbai infested by a zombie outbreak and a married couple scrambling for survival. With an estimated budget of ₹300 crore, the film is turning out to be the most expensive standalone project in Ranveer’s career. He is also co-producing the movie under his banner Ma Kasam Films.
