Way back in late 70s and early 80s Megastar Chiranjeevi appeared in small roles and villain roles in films. As he had no filmy background then, Chiranjeevi had to do those roles and finally emerged as a Megastar.
From then on never ever Chiranjeevi and other mega heroes played supporting roles to other heroes. Although Stylish Star did supporting character in Rudhramadevi, it was considered a heroine centric movie.
As and when Mega Power Star Ram Charan and Young Tiger NTR's multi-starrer film was confirmed with Rajamouli, mega fans smelt a rat if Rajamouli would show bias on his favourite hero NTR. But then, inside reports suggest that both Ram Charan and NTR would be having equal importance in their roles.
A shocking update suggest that Mega Prince Varun Tej would appear in another hero's role in Rana's Adavi Ramudu. Perhaps, this is the first time a mega hero enacting a hero role in which the title of the film is given on another hero's (Rana) name.
For now, some observers may feel that the mega hero gets surrendered to another hero. But who knows? Varun Tej would score brownie points on par with Rana in the movie. As we all know, Rana is a family friend of mega family and the close buddy of Ram Charan.
