Chiranjeevi not keen on Dad-Son Drama. Megastar Chiranjeevi is cautious about taking on a family-oriented film centered on a father-son relationship, which was pitched by the acclaimed director Kalyan Krishna and has temporarily been set aside. According to an inside source, his hesitance stems from the underwhelming performance of his previous movie, 'Bholaa Shankar,' which revolved around a brother-sister story.
However, he did appreciate the new script, which blends love, family emotions, and entertainment.The highly anticipated project was slated to be produced by his devoted daughter, Sushmita Konidela. Chiranjeevi wants to ensure its success as it holds significant importance for his daughter's production banner.
'Bholaa Shankar' featured a brother-sister sentiment, where the hero conceals his past to aid his adopted sister (Keerthy Suresh) in achieving success, and the story unfolds in Calcutta. Unfortunately, this sentimental drama did not resonate with his extensive fanbase and the Telugu audience.Presently, his attention is focused on an upcoming socio-fantasy film directed by the young filmmaker Vashishta, which will mark his 157th film.
Notably, top heroine Anushka Shetty will play a pivotal role in this project.In the interim, Chiranjeevi remains open to the possibility of taking on a mass entertainer that aligns with his larger-than-life image. Such a project could serve as a grand debut for his daughter's production house.
