The global event series from Prime Video and the Russo Brothers AGBO, as well as Samantha Ruth Prabhu's role as Varun Dhawan in the Indian installment of the Citadel universe, was confirmed by Prime Video on Wednesday. The well-known Indian creator duo Raj & DK (Raj Nidimoru and Krishna DK) are the showrunners and directors of the untitled Citadel series. Sita R. Menon, Raj, and DK are the writers of the local installment. Additionally, the streaming service confirmed that Mumbai is the location of the production. The unit will then travel to North India, Serbia, and South Africa, among other international locations.

The first-ever series in the Citadel universe, from the Russo Brothers' AGBO and David Weil, will star Richard Madden and Priyanka Chopra Jonas, as previously stated. It will premiere in 2023 and come from the Russo Brothers' AGBO. The first installment of the Citadel series will also feature Stanley Tucci, in addition to Madden and Chopra Jonas. An Italian original series starring Matilda De Angelis and other local-language Citadel productions are also in the works.

We are beyond thrilled to collaborate with Samantha once more. One of the most talented artists in the business today, she made her streaming debut with The Family Man Season 2 on Prime Video. Aparna Purohit, head of India Originals, Prime Video, stated, "We can't wait for audiences to see her on-screen in a brand new avatar, along with Varun and the incredibly talented ensemble cast we have on board for this series." The Indian chapter of Citadel has a canvas that is larger than life, but the treatment and texture are old-fashioned, rooted, and quirky. The series is being filmed extensively throughout India and other countries. We are confident that the series will be nothing short of a spectacle thanks to Raj and DK's leadership and the extremely talented cast.
