It is known that, director Krish planned to make a film tentatively titled Veeraian with Victory Venkatesh. The story was loosely inspired by the popular Telugu novel Athadu Adavini Jayinchadu written by Dr Kesava Reddy. But, the project has been shelved as another director bought the rights to make the novel as film.
Krish then took up a Bollywood project Manikarnika and then NTR Biopic. He is presently making a film Viroopaksha with Power Star Pawan Kalyan which completed a small shooting schedule. The film’s shoot will resume, after Pawan Kalyan wraps up Viroopaksha.
In the meantime, Krish came up an announcement of making a film with Pawan Kalyan’s nephew Vaishnav Tej. The film’s story is setup in forest and Rakul Preet Singh is the female lead. The entire shoot will be completed in couple of months in a single schedule.
If a grapevine is to be believed, Krish made enough alterations to the script he penned for Venkatesh and is now making the same with Vaishnav Tej. If the film has any scenes lifted from the novel, they may face copyright issues.
It has to be seen how Krish will react to these rumors!
