People plan many, but some things happen unexpectedly. Even Super Star Mahesh Babu is not immune to it. He never thought of doing multi starrers. In fact, he went on record saying, "Multistarrers will trigger fan wars. Here there are many fans and fans associations. So one should be careful while doing multi starers."
However, he set a trend of multi starrers with Seethamma Vakitlo Srimalle Chettu teaming up with Victory Venkatesh. He never expected to do such mutli starrer earlier. When he got the offer to do a powerful special in megastar Chiranjeevi's Acharya, he readily agreed. However, everything fell apart due to his astronomical demands. For the first time, filmmakers rejected Mahesh though he showed interest in doing the role. With this experience, he may not give a green signal for any special roles in the future.
Mahesh said he is averse to remakes as it draws comparisons and he hates doing a role earlier done by another actor. It has to be seen whether Mahesh will stick to his decision or will undergo a change of mind.
Mahesh also said he is against starring in Bollywood or Hollywood films and added that he would love to star in Telugu films and elevate the standard of Telugu cinema at the international level.
But more than him, Young Rebel Star Prabhas achieved Mahesh's mission with Rajamouli's Baahubali. Prabhas who earlier used to be a small star compared to Mahesh, with Baahubali, became the only Pan India superstar.
Sources say seeing Prabhas' reputation and popularity, Mahesh is undergoing a change of mind and one need not be surprised if he makes a Bollywood debut in the future. Already Mahesh held discussions with Bollywood's top producer Sajid Nadiadwala. Let's see what surprises Mahesh will spring in the future.
