‘Citadel: Honey Bunny’, the Indian chapter of Citadel, was announced by Russo Brothers, Anthony and Joe in 2022, however development on the project had begun even way before the pandemic. Varun Dhawan had earlier disclosed that he called the DK of Raj-DK director duo and asked to work on an action film with them after watching ‘The Family Man 2’. At that point, they made the decision to give him the lead role in ‘Citadel: Honey Bunny’, their upcoming production.However, Samantha Ruth Prabhu came into the picture much later.
During a conversation with News18 Showsha, Samantha shared that even during filming for ‘The Family Man 2’, she was unaware that Raj-DK was involved in a project with the Russo Brothers. She shared, “They had put up a picture with the Russo Brothers and I knew that they were collaborating. But that’s all I knew. I didn’t know anything about the series or its world.”
Samantha joked that, in contrast to the majority of the cast, her co-star Varun, had access to nearly all of Citadel: Honey Bunny’s information ever since he made the much talked phone conversation to DK. The actress quipped, “Varun was the only one who came and become an immediate insider on the second day. We, normal people, had to wait to become one for years!”
She also revealed that although Raj-DK trusted Varun with confidential information about their series, Varun isn’t the type of person to keep secrets. “People somehow tend to share every information with Varun knowing fully well that there’s no guarantee of confidentiality. They know there’s no question of holding and keeping secrets when it comes to Varun and yet, they decide to tell him everything. I just don’t understand that!” she shared.
‘Citadel: Honey Bunny’ marks Varun Dhawan and Samantha Ruth Prabhu’s first project together. It is executive-produced by the Russo Brothers of ‘Avengers’ fame. It is the Indian installment that is part of the larger ‘Citadel’ universe. The first edition starred Priyanka Chopra and Richard Madden in lead roles.
