Sukumar pivotal in Buchi Babu Sana directing Ram Charan and not NTR.The shooting of a new movie featuring Ram Charan and directed by Sana Buchibabu has recently commenced. The film is being jointly produced by two banners along with Mythri Movie Makers, with AR Rahman lending his vocals.
Janhvi Kapoor has been cast as the female lead, sparking high expectations among fans. Speculations are rife about the film's theme, with some suggesting it could be a biopic of Kodi Rammurthynaidu, while others hint at a sports-centric storyline. Once Ram Charan completes his ongoing project with Shankar, this film is expected to progress rapidly.
Interestingly, the original story for this movie was prepared with Jr. NTR in mind, who had initially approved it. However, after discussions with mentor Sukumar, Buchibabu felt the story would be better suited for Ram Charan. Sukumar also advised some changes to enhance the script, which Buchibabu incorporated. After narrating the revised script to Ram Charan, the actor agreed to be a part of the project. This collaboration between Buchibabu and Ram Charan has thus been finalized.
However, this decision has not gone down well with Jr. NTR's fans, who have expressed their disappointment on social media, attributing the switch to Sukumar's influence. On the other hand, Tarak's fans believe that it is acceptable for directors to make changes to suit different actors and projects. There were also reports suggesting that Jr. NTR might have passed on the project to Ram Charan due to his prior commitments. The truth behind these speculations remains unclear.
