Earlier this morning, a hearsay made rounds that veteran heroine Trisha, herself, opted out of Megastar Chiranjeevi's Acharya as she got worried if her role would be designed like an aunty. However, according to the highly placed sources, team Acharya deliberately roped in Kajal Agarwal replacing Trisha in the film for some valid reasons. Following are said to be the exact reasons the makers prefer Kajal to Trisha.
* By the time Trisha was chosen for Megastar's heroine, most of the mega fans felt a big heroine of current generation could have been the better choice in the film.* Kajal was the female lead of Megastar Chiranjeevi's comeback film Khaidi Number 150 which also stood an industry hit of Tollywood then. * The combo of Chiranjeevi and Kajal, especially in songs, received praises from all corners. * Now that a big heroine is planned to be inducted to romance the hero who plays cameo role, it's contemplated by film's team Kajal could fit the bill playing opposite to Megastar.
Acharya is being directed by Koratala Siva under Konidela Production Company and Matinee Entertainments. Manisharma is composing music of the film. August 14 is the scheduled date of release.
