Was it Mahesh Babu, Full Clarity on Movie Rejected by Sai Pallavi?

Sai Pallavi is the hottest dancing sensation in the Telugu Film Industry who has a separate fan-base for exclusively her dancing skills. There has been a rumour doing rounds since 2019 about a movie she rejected that was offered by Anil Ravipudi under Dil Raju’s production house.

At that point in time when the rumours surfaced, Anil Ravipudi was doing Mahesh Babu’s previous Sankranthi super hit ‘Sarileru Neekevvaru’ and therefore, it was almost concluded that she might have rejected the superstar’s movie and then, the role went to Rashmika Mandanna.

Currently, during the promotions of ‘Gaali Sampath’, director Anil Ravipudi mentioned how a project with Sai Pallavi didn’t materialise. It was a sports movie that he aspires to do someday. Now, the clarity is about the rumours and it’s understood that Sai Pallavi didn’t reject ‘Sarileru Neekevvaru’.

Given the actress’ choice of films, no one would expect a filmmaker to approach her with a pucca commercial kind of role that has no meat, whatsoever. Anyway, though late, here came the clarity.
