Actor-producer Vishnu Manchu has announced an exciting new collaboration with Hollywood superstar Will Smith. Rather than a film project, Manchu revealed that he is venturing into the media and entertainment technology sector. He is launching Taranga Ventures, a $50 million initiative aimed at investing in transformative technologies within the industry.
According to a press release, Will Smith is in the final stages of negotiations to join the project, with further updates expected soon. The venture will focus on emerging technologies such as OTT platforms, gaming, blockchain, augmented reality (AR), virtual reality (VR), and artificial intelligence (AI). Beyond financial investment, Taranga Ventures plans to provide strategic mentorship to startups in the entertainment space, with the goal of redefining the future of media and entertainment.
Manchu emphasised that this collaboration marks a significant milestone, combining expertise from various sectors to drive innovation. Industry insiders and fans are eagerly awaiting further details on the venture, which could have a major impact on the entertainment landscape.
In addition to this venture, Manchu is also preparing for his upcoming film Kannappa, a historical drama featuring big names like Akshay Kumar, Prabhas, Mohanlal, and Kajal Agarwal, which further amplifies his growing influence in both the film and business industries.
