**Siddhant Chaturvedi’s Netflix Film ‘Ramree’ Shelved Over Budget Issues**

Siddhant Chaturvedi’s much-anticipated action creature film, tentatively titled *Ramree*, has been shelved by Netflix India due to budget constraints. The project, which was to mark the directorial debut of Neha Sharma (not to be confused with the actor), was also expected to star Mohit Raina alongside Chaturvedi.

**Production Challenges**

A source revealed to Mid-Day, “Work on the film had been going on for over a year. Given the subject and the period setting, it was an expensive project. For an OTT film, this would have set a benchmark in scale and imagination, but budget constraints caught up with it. Even though the platform heads were excited about the story, there was too much at stake financially. So they decided to not move forward with it.”

**Project Details**

Set in 1945, *Ramree* was intended to explore a genre rarely seen in Hindi cinema. The film was planned as a two-hero project and was to be produced by Ajay Devgn. Neha Sharma, who had previously worked on *The Zoya Factor* (2019) and *Tere Bin Laden: Dead or Alive* (2016), was set to make her directorial debut with this ambitious venture.

**Industry Perspective**

Another industry source commented, “‘Ramree’ was an idea in development that did not move forward, a natural part of the creative process where multiple concepts are explored. While some take shape, some don’t.”

Meanwhile, Siddhant Chaturvedi was last seen in *Dhadak 2*, which is now streaming on Netflix.
