The suspense over Allu Arjun’s next film continues even as the shooting formalities of his much-anticipated sequel, Pushpa 2, are nearing completion. There was speculation in the industry circles that he would make a formal announcement about his project on his birthday. However, fans were disappointed as there was no such development on March 8th as expected by the media circles.
It is a well-known fact that Hotshot Tamil director Atlee, who delivered a pan-India blockbuster with Shah Rukh Khan’s Jawan, is the forerunner to direct Allu Arjun in a commercial potboiler. Atlee and Bunny held several story discussions in Hyderabad in recent times. So, it was expected that an official statement about this crazy project would be made even before he wraps up Pushpa 2. Surprisingly, Allu Arjun and his team have been maintaining a stoic silence on this project.
Meanwhile, Tollywood director Trivikram Srinivas is also eagerly waiting for Allu Arjun’s call. Last year, a massive announcement was made regarding Trivikram’s first pan-India outing with Allu Arjun. Since then, there has been no update whatsoever on this project. While there are murmurs in Tollywood that the disappointing result of Trivikram’s Guntur Kaaram is likely to impact the prospects of this project, Allu Arjun is keeping mum on the ongoing rumours.
Reliable reports from Allu Arjun’s camp revealed that both these projects are very much happening and there is a strong probability that he might shoot for them simultaneously. For the time being, both Atlee and Trivikram need to play the waiting game because there is no other option for them.
