There have been rumors for a long time that Mega Star Chiranjeevi and his brother-in-law Allu Aravind are not on talking terms. Reports came that Chiranjeevi sidelined Allu Aravind completely and not doing films with Geetha Arts banner. Though he is doing films under Konidela Compound and outside banners, Chiranjeevi not doing films with Geetha Arts is increasing suspicion.
In the midst of all this Allu Aravind decided to do a film with Angry Star Rajasekhar. Rumors spread that Allu Aravind decided to team up with Rajasekhar though he is from the rival compound, because Chiranjeevi is not doing films under his banner. Rajasekhar will star in the film under the direction of Karuna Kumar.
This makes people ask why Aravind is doing this as Rajasekhar is attacking Chiranjeevi. Everyone knows Rajasekhar's behavior during the MAA diary launch. Chiranjeevi turned furious and resulted in the resignation of Rajasekhar.
But sources say Allu Aravind who is an astute businessman, felt that Rajasekhar suits for angry police officer roles. Joseph's film revolves around the retired police officer role and that was the reason Allu Aravind decided to cast Rajasekhar in the role.
