Sandalwood Star Upendra needs no introduction. He endeared himself to all with his films Kanya Danam, A, Upendra, Ra, Rakta Kanneru, Oke Maata, Stupid, etc. He made a mark for himself in Tollywood by getting his films dubbed in Telugu.
However, for quite some time, Upendra is not seen on the Tollywood screen. He was last seen in a powerful special in Allu Arjun's S/O Satyamurthy in the direction of Trivikram Srinivas. He got good name and recognition but after that, for some reason, he did not star in Telugu films.
Upendra revealing why he did not act in Telugu films after S/O Satyamurthy said, "I got busy in Kannada after S/O Satyamurthy. To the top of it, I entered politics. If I get a good role I will definitely do act in Telugu. Currently, I am doing a guest role in Boxer. My role has importance in this film. I am ready to do such roles. However, those who are coming up with offers are offering me negative roles. I am unable to decide on it and is in a dilemma."
Reports are coming that the makers of Mahesh Babu-Parasuram's film are planning to cast Upendra in an important role. Upendra is currently starring in Kabjaa under the direction of R.Chandru. The film is turning out to be a pan India film releasing in Telugu, Tamil, Kannada, Malayalam, Odiya, and Marathi languages. The film has a period backdrop with an underworld background.
