Following the monumental success of Balagam, which marked his directorial debut, Venu Yeldandi is once again the subject of much anticipation in Tollywood. The filmmaker’s next project, titled Yellamma, is creating a stir in the industry, with rumors circulating that star music director Devi Sri Prasad may star in the lead role. The news has quickly gained traction on social media, igniting curiosity among film enthusiasts.
After the massive success of Balagam, fans and industry insiders alike have been eagerly awaiting Venu’s second film. However, despite the project being announced nearly two years ago under the banner of prominent producer Dil Raju, the lead actor for Yellamma has not yet been confirmed, leading to growing speculation over when the film will finally go into production.
Initially, actor Nani was approached for the role, but he had to step away due to scheduling conflicts with other commitments. Subsequently, actor Nithiin was reportedly finalized for the part, and official announcements were made. However, following the underperformance of Tammudu and budget constraints, Nithiin also reportedly exited the project. At one point, there were even rumors that Bellamkonda Sai Srinivas would step in, but this was never confirmed, and the speculation proved to be unfounded.
Now, in a surprising turn of events, the name of Devi Sri Prasad has surfaced as a potential lead actor for Yellamma. Fans of the music composer have long expressed their desire to see him in front of the camera, and the news of this potential collaboration with Venu Yeldandi and Dil Raju has only heightened expectations for the project. While there has been no official confirmation yet, the buzz surrounding this “crazy” combination is already generating immense excitement, leaving audiences eagerly waiting to learn more about the film’s cast and release.
