Phantom Films is filmmaker Anurag Kashyap's production house. The production house has bought the rights from Krishna Udayasankar's book called 'Immortal'.
She is a Singapore- based Indian author of the bestselling Aryavarta Chronicles series (Govinda, Kauravaand, Kurukshetra), a modern- retelling of the Mahabharat.
The production house has planned to make the film as a trilogy on Ashwathama in a modern context. It is a story about a flawed hero, who cannot die but continues to suffer insurmountable pain as a consequence of it.
Reportedly, Immortal is the modern-day telling of the story of the legendary misunderstood warrior, Ashwathama, who having been given the curse of immortality by Krishna, has been roaming the earth for millennia in search of mortality. As a result, the story also (in a way) spans 4000 years.
