Prince Mahesh Babu's Maharshi is on a brisk pace of its shoot at the moment. The film's shoot will be wrapped up in the month of March. Afterwards, Mahesh Babu will collaborate Sukumar for a film.
Earlier, Mahesh and Sukumar planned a period entertainer of 1940s backdrop. Also, the substance was rumoured to be on Razakar's movement of Telangana.
However, Mahesh Babu dropped his decision of doing a period film within no time. Since Megastar Chiranjeevi's period entertainer Sye Raa Narasimhareddy would be hitting screens next year and that has a pan Indian appeal and Young Rebel Star Prabhas' 20th venture is also likely to a period entertainer, Mahesh Babu felt it would be monotonous doing another period entertainer. Moreover, Mahesh Babu doesn't wish to go for a complete makeover. These factors made him stepped back of doing a period entertainer.
As a result, Sukumar is penning a brand new story for Mahesh Babu. The movie will go on sets in the month of March.
