We have very few Telugu girls rocking on the Telugu screen right now as leading ladies, but once upon a time they dominated. The likes of Jayaprada, Jayasudha, Sumalatha, Gauthami, Bhanupriya, and Madhavi are the hotties of the 80s. And the one who became a superstar from this group is surely Vijayashanti.
With almost 175 films in her kitty, she took a break from acting to become active in politics and now likely to make a comeback. We all know how the pair of Megastar Chiranjeevi and Vijayashanti enthralled movie lovers. No one will forget the noise the duo made on screen with films like Gang Leader. Buzz has that she is all set to make her comeback to mainstream cinema with a pivotal role in Megastar Chiranjeevi’s next movie Sye Raa.
Tipped to be a periodic drama that revolves around the life and times of freedom fighter Uyyalavada Narasimha Reddy, the film already has Nayanthara, and Pragya Jaiswal playing the female leads. Reports are coming that Vijayashanti will be seen as Uyyalwada’s first wife, while Nayan will play his second wife, and Pragya only a member of his rebel group. But what is to be seen is, will Vijayashanti limit herself to such small roles?
Chiranjeevi’s Sye Raa is currently in final stages of pre-production and the regular shoot will start from December as per latest reports. Konidela Production Company is bankrolling this prestigious project which was supposed to start shooting on October 20th. Reasons for delay are currently not known.
