The movie is described as the celebration of “victory of good over evil”.
“Welcoming @kritisanon and @mesunnysingh to the #Adipurush family,” T-Series shared on its official Twitter handle, alongside pictures of Sanon, Singh, Prabhas and Raut.
In a post on her Instagram account, Sanon said she was “proud, honoured ad beyond excited” to board the cast of the movie.
The actor will also be seen in Akshay Kumar-starrer “Bachchan Pandey” and producer Dinesh Vijan’ upcoming movie “Mimi”.
Singh, best known for his film “Sonu Ke Titu Ki Sweety”, said he was thrilled to be part of “Adipurush”.
“Joining the celebration of good over evil, excited to be a part of the #Adipurush family,” he said.
“Adipurush” is a follow up to Raut’s blockbuster movie “Tanhaji: The Unsung Warrior”, starring Ajay Devgn and Khan, which released last year.
The film is slated to be released in theatres on August 11, 2022.
