Chiranjeevi Teaming Up With Tharun Moorthy
Megastar Chiranjeevi could be heading for an interesting collaboration with Malayalam director Tharun Moorthy. According to the latest industry reports, the Thudarum filmmaker recently met the actor and narrated a story. The subject reportedly impressed Chiranjeevi, creating fresh buzz about a possible Telugu film.
Tharun Moorthy earned wider recognition with Thudarum, starring Mohanlal, which became a major box office success. His earlier films, including Operation Java and Saudi Vellakka, also received attention for their different storytelling styles. The director is now reportedly looking to bring his filmmaking approach to Telugu cinema with Chiranjeevi.
Reports suggest that Tharun Moorthy has developed a story combining emotional depth, strong characters and commercial elements to suit Chiranjeevi's image. The initial discussion is said to have gone well, but the director is expected to prepare a complete bound script before taking the project forward. No producer or supporting cast has been announced so far.
The Chiranjeevi - Tharun Moorthy combination is still at an early stage, and neither side has officially confirmed the project. Tharun Moorthy had earlier clarified that his May 2026 meeting with Chiranjeevi was not about a Thudarum remake. If the latest story discussions lead to an agreement, the collaboration could bring a fresh Malayalam filmmaking touch to Telugu cinema.
