If rumours are to be believed, Tiger Shroff has been approached to play Shiva in the movie adaptation of Amish Tripathi's best-selling novel 'The Immortals Of Mehlua'.

Karan Johar will be adapting the book for the big screen.

The first book in Amish Tripathi's Shiva Trilogy tells the story of a Tibetan immigrant named Shiva who is invited to the kingdom of Meluha where he discovers his destiny

For this film, Karan Johar was looking for a fresh and young actor who had the ability to look like Lord Shiva.

Tiger Shroff, who will be making his Bollywood debut with 'Heropanti' this Friday, was apparently considered because of his action skills, physicality and discipline.

Incidentally, Tiger Shroff in real life is also a huge devotee of Lord Shiva. He is a firm believer and takes immense inspiration from Shiva's stories that he has read. Also, before before any auspicious event in his life, Tiger Shroff seeks blessings of Lord Shiva.

When contacted Tiger Shroff, he said, "There have been a lot of projects that I have been approached for. But I can only talk about them once it is finalized."
