Soon after the blockbuster success of 'Mirchi', Mega Power Star Ram Charan was approached by director Koratala Siva. The director narrated a story to Ram Charan but it was not materialized.
When journos quizzed about the story if it was the same story rejected for Ram Charan's movie, Koratala Siva made it clear that it was not the same story that was prepared for Ram Charan. As such, it can be understood that 'Srimanthudu' is a brand new story prepared exlusively for Prince Mahesh.
Meanwhile, team 'Baahubali' thanked the makers of 'Srimanthudu' for postponing their movie on their request. 'Srimanthudu's shoot will be wrapped by 27th of this month. Audio launch of the movie will be organized on July 18 while movie is gearing up for release on August 7. Shruthi Haasan paired up with Mahesh in this family entertainer. The movie was made on Mythri Movie Makers banner.
