As people age, knee surgeries have become a common necessity. Especially for actors who have engaged in demanding physical activities like fights, jumps, and dance routines throughout their careers.
Even the iconic Megastar Chiranjeevi isn’t exempt from this reality as he is currently dealing with a knee issue. The need for surgery has been pending for some time, and a decision seems to have been made to proceed with it.
However, the location of the surgery, whether in Hyderabad or abroad, remains undisclosed, known only to Chiranjeevi and his family. Reports suggest that the surgery is scheduled for this week, followed by a recovery period lasting around one to one and a half months.
After the recovery, he is expected to return to the sets. However, the disappointment surrounding the underperformance of “Bhola Shankar” at the box office has sent shockwaves through the Mega camp.
The exact reasons are unclear, but preliminary assessments point towards the possible impact of the inclusion of the entire Jabardasth team.
Conversations now center on the strategy for the upcoming film. Director Kalyan Krishna is currently focused on developing the script.
Decisions about Chiranjeevi’s surgery, recovery process, film direction, and selection of the young hero are all under consideration.
Following this path, it appears that fans might have to wait until the summer of 2024 for another Megastar movie to hit the screens.
