The talk that Mahesh Babu may not be teaming up with director Sukumar has no truth at all.The thought of reconsidering the project has never happened, says a source close to the production house that is producing the film.
Media has been speculating that Mahesh Babu didn’t like the story ideas of Sukumar and it was reported that he is looking to team up with other young directors instead of Sukumar.However, Sukumar has already begun preparing for two new scripts for Mahesh Babu. The superstar who is working for “Maharshi” in USA will be returning to India in the first half of November.
Once Mahesh returns to India, Sukumar will narrate his two story ideas and based on Mahesh’s inputs he will prepare the full script.As per the current plan, the film will go to the sets in the month of March. It will be completed by end of 2019.
Sukumar had earlier directed Mahesh Babu in “1 Nenokkade” that ended up being a huge flop.
The massive success of “Rangasthalam” has given Sukumar confidence that he can now tell any story in a commercial way with a big star.
