RGV spoke to Hindustan Times about his international project. He said,
“YES IT’S GOING TO BE MUCH MORE COSTLIER THAN THE MOST EXPENSIVE FILM EVER MADE IN INDIA AND THE REASON FOR THAT IS BECAUSE THE SUBJECT MATTER TRULY DEMANDS THAT IT IS FILMED ON A SCALE NEVER BEFORE SEEN”.
This World War 3 film is titled ‘Nuclear’. It will be his first international project. The project will start after Varma is done with ‘Sarkar 3′.

After experimenting with Underworld and politics, Ramu will be working on the global evil that is terrorism. In a note, RGV said,
I have been an avid and voracious reader of both fiction and non-fiction but never in my life until now, have I come across a subject matter like NUCLEAR. Yes it’s going to be much more costlier than the most expensive film ever made in India and the reason for that is because the subject matter truly demands that it is filmed on a scale never before seen.
Terrorism is the biggest threat to the world. ‘Nuclear’ would depict how terrifying and dangerous Nuclear weapons can be, and the horror of a nuclear war, and the consequences that people will suffer.
