Megastar Chiranjeevi went on a signing spree after spending a lot of time on ‘Sye Raa’. He okayed ‘Acharya’ with Koratala Siva, ‘Waltair Veerayya’ with Bobby, ‘Bholaa Shankar’ with Meher Ramesh and another project with Venky Kudumula as the director. The ‘Chalo’ director was expected to join hands with Megastar soon and the DVV Entertainments banner announced it officially too.
But the story reportedly did not impress the Megastar and with ‘Bholaa Shankar’ getting completed in a month or two, Chiru is reportedly looking for suitable stories. He lined up a lot of options ahead of him. ‘Bimbisara’ fame Vashishta is trying hard to convince Megastar. Other than him, BVS Ravi, Kalyan Krishna and Prasanna Kumar Bezawada are also trying to impress the ‘Tagore’ hero with their stories. All of them have narrated the basic story and are preparing the final scripts in order to get a nod from the Megastar.
Sources say that a new name has been added to this list. Sukumar’s protégé Srikanth Odela scored a blockbuster success like ‘Dasara’ with his first film. As we know, Sudhakar Cherukuri who bankrolled ‘Dasara’ will be producing Odela’s second film as well. Apparently, Srikanth found access to Chiranjeevi and narrated a story to the latter. Just like others, Srikanth was also asked to develop it into a full script and it is to be seen how things turn out.
Insiders say that Chiru got impressed by ‘Dasara’ and if Srikanth manages to impress the legendary hero, Megastar is ready to kickstart it immediately. Sources say that Srikanth has already gathered a few writers and started developing the script. Let us wait and see what happens in the coming days.
