While nothing is inked so far, things are looking positive," said Gupta. Nagraj is a character which has a rich blend of Indian mythology, fantasy and science fiction. It has quite a cult fan following. The first ever comic on Nagraj was written by Prashuram Sharma and illustrations were done by Pratap Mullik.

On the professional front, Ranveer is back to his debut production banner – YRF with his upcoming Gujarati flick, Jayeshbhai Jordaar. Directed and written by newcomer Divyang Thakkar, the film is produced by Maneesh Sharma, who directed Ranveer in their debut film Band Baaja Baaraat (2010) under YRF. Apart from this Ranveer, will also be seen in Kabir Khan's '83' which is slated to release on April 2010.
