Director Venu Sriram has a history of taking long gaps between his movies. After a considerable gap following Oh My Friend and MCA, he released Vakeel Saab in April 2021. However, despite the film’s success, Venu Sriram has not announced any upcoming projects until recently. He was reportedly in talks with several actors, and his plans for his next project were delayed due to various reasons.
Currently, he is in discussions with Nithin for his next film, tentatively titled MCA 2, and also with UV Creations for another film. In his latest interaction, Venu Sriram revealed that he is working on the script for the sequel to Vakeel Saab, which was released after a long gap. However, he stated that Pawan Kalyan, the lead actor in Vakeel Saab, will not be available for the sequel anytime soon due to prior commitments. Meanwhile, Venu Sriram intends to complete his current projects before moving forward with the Vakeel Saab sequel.
