Venkatesh Next With Surender Reddy

Following the massive success of Sankranthiki Vasthunnam in theaters and on OTT platforms, Venkatesh is reportedly set to collaborate with director Surender Reddy on an upcoming action-comedy film. Surender Reddy, known for his stylish and high-energy storytelling, has been largely out of the spotlight since his last film, Agent, failed at the box office. However, with Agent set to make its OTT debut on March 17, 2025, both the film and its director are once again making headlines.

According to industry reports, Surender Reddy recently met with Venkatesh and narrated the concept of the film. Venkatesh appreciated the basic premise and has requested a full narration, which is expected to take place in the coming weeks. If the project receives the green light, it could mark a crucial career revival for Surender Reddy. Meanwhile, Venkatesh has been selective about his next project after the success of Sankranthiki Vasthunnam, and is reportedly in discussions with top production houses such as Sithara Entertainments and Mythri Movie Makers.

Industry insiders suggest that following the success of Sankranthiki Vasthunnam, Venkatesh is keen on doing a lighthearted entertainer, as expectations from him have soared after his comedic performance in the film. Venkatesh's previous film, Saindhav, was a box-office disappointment, and the actor attributed its failure to an unfavorable release period. Now, having made a strong comeback, Venkatesh is being cautious about his future projects, opting for roles that align with his age and audience expectations.

As for Surender Reddy's film, Venkatesh's final decision will depend on the complete narration, which is set to take place in the near future. If the project is greenlit, it will be produced on a grand scale by Nallamalupu Bujji. With Venkatesh's focus on commercial entertainers for the big screen and experimentation with diverse content on OTT platforms, his upcoming projects are highly anticipated by fans and industry insiders alike.
