Chiranjeevi’s socio-fantasy film “Jagadeka Veerudu Athiloka Sundari” created a sensational blockbuster in the 1990s, etching its place in Telugu cinema history. However, despite his success in the genre, his later attempt with the socio-fantasy film “Anji” in the mid-2000s was met with disappointment and didn’t fare well at the box office. Consequently, Chiranjeevi refrained from venturing into this genre for quite some time.
After a significant hiatus, the Megastar is set to make a return to the socio-fantasy genre with a new project, to be directed by Vashista, known for his work in “Bimbisara.” The film’s shooting is expected to kick off soon, and intriguingly, Mrinal Thakur has been approached for a pivotal role, distinct from that of the lead heroine.
Currently, Chiranjeevi is occupied with the pre-wedding celebrations of his nephew Varun Tej, which has been a focus of his attention amidst his upcoming film commitments. The anticipation is high for Chiranjeevi’s return to the socio-fantasy genre, and fans are eager to see how this new project will unfold.
