After the disastrous disappointment of Bhola Shankar, Megastar Chiranjeevi has become more careful about his future film endeavors. Director Kalyan Krishna, who had initially agreed to collaborate with Chiranjeevi (with his daughter as the producer), has now postponed the project. This unexpected decision has surprised everyone and left Chiranjeevi’s fans uncertain about his next move, especially in light of criticism that he’s not portraying age-appropriate roles on screen.
Despite this criticism, speculations are rife that Mega Star is trying to make Mega 157 happen sooner, directed by Vashishta. Filming is set to start in November, but the team hasn’t picked the female lead yet. The issue is that Vashishta isn’t a famous director, so while this movie could help him, it might not give Chiranjeevi the big break he’s looking for in his career right now.
On a different note, fans have been speculating about the chance of Chiranjeevi teaming up with a renowned director Boyapati Srinu. Boyapati dropped hints about a possible collaboration with Chiranjeevi during the pre-release event of Vinaya Vidheya Rama.Additionally, Boyapati hasn’t announced his next film yet, but sources suggest he’s a strong contender to direct Chiranjeevi’s next project. Similarly, Trivikram also confirmed his intention to work with Chiranjeevi. Recent reports suggest that Trivikram might direct a sequel to Khaidi, although it’s not confirmed.
Either of these two directors would be a solid choice for Chiranjeevi. However, there’s also buzz that Sukumar is in the running to work with Chiranjeevi.Despite not often appearing together in public, Sukumar and Chiranjeevi have maintained a connection. Sukumar reportedly provided input during the making of Godfather, and Chiranjeevi has expressed his admiration for Sukumar on multiple occasions. While Sukumar is planning a film with Ram Charan, he has supposedly hinted that if he had to choose between the father and the son, he would prefer to work with Chiranjeevi.
While it’s still uncertain whether this is just a rumor or a factual development, the possibility of it becoming a reality cannot be ruled out.
In summary, the current situation is uncertain, leaving Chiranjeevi’s fans in suspense about his next film.
