Tollywood’s hit machine director Anil Ravipudi has moved on to his next project after delivering a big success with Mana Shankara Vara Prasad Garu. This time, he has lined up a crazy multistarrer featuring Venkatesh and Nandamuri Kalyan Ram. The film is currently in pre-production, and as expected from Anil, it is being planned as a 2027 Sankranti release.
Now, the hottest topic in Film Nagar is the casting of the female leads. As per strong buzz, Krithi Shetty has been finalized opposite Kalyan Ram. Sources suggest that her role is quite important in the narrative. On the other side, Keerthy Suresh is being considered to pair with Venkatesh. If confirmed, this fresh combination is expected to add significant value to the film.
Coming to Krithi Shetty, after a sensational debut with Uppena, she quickly lost track. She turned out to be a one film wonder, with none of her subsequent films making any real impact. It was one flop after another, and even her attempts in other languages failed to establish her properly. Right now, her career is clearly in need of a strong comeback.
This is exactly where Anil Ravipudi’s film could become a turning point. With his reputation for delivering clean commercial hits and maintaining a near flawless success streak, this project might give Krithi the reset she badly needs.
Although these casting details are doing the rounds on social media, an official confirmation from the makers is still awaited. The shoot is expected to begin soon, and with Anil Ravipudi’s trademark mix of comedy and commercial elements, the film is expected to be a solid Sankranti entertainer.
