Arijit Singh, one of India’s most celebrated playback singers, is set to explore a new creative frontier — film direction. According to media reports, the musical powerhouse will soon make his debut as a Bollywood director with a jungle adventure film.

The upcoming project is reportedly being backed by producer Mahaveer Jain, known for championing unique cinematic ventures. A source close to the development revealed, “Arijit Singh is stepping into direction with a one-of-a-kind jungle adventure. Mahaveer Jain is thrilled about the film and is investing heavily to make it a pan-India experience.”

Currently in the pre-production stage, the film is being co-written by Arijit Singh himself along with Koyel Singh. The casting process is underway, and an official announcement is expected once the title and lead cast are finalised.

The film is being jointly produced by Sudipta Bhattacharya, Fukrey director Mrighdeep Singh Lamba, and Bala Saheb Darade under the banners of Mahaveer Jain Films and Alokdyuti Films. It is also co-produced by God Bless Entertainment.

Having dominated music charts and platforms like Spotify, Arijit Singh now aims to captivate audiences with his storytelling skills — marking a significant shift in his artistic journey.
