In March, mid-day reported that filmmaker Shekhar Kapur is set to helm a web series based on author Amish Tripathi’s The Immortals of Meluha, the first book in the Shiva Trilogy (Another shot at screen immortality for Meluha, March 9). Now, one hears that the team has begun the casting process. Kriti Sanon and Shraddha Kapoor are apparently in contention to play the female lead, Sati, the Meluhan princess and love interest of protagonist Shiva.
