In Tollywood, legendary heroes like Megastar Chiranjeevi and Nandamuri Balakrishna are always in the forefront. Having entertained millions of fans over five decades, they continue to engage their audience energetically even past the age of 60. Recently, at a film industry event marking Balakrishna’s 50 years in cinema, Chiranjeevi mentioned their upcoming multi-starrer. Director Boyapati Srinu has been challenged to craft the story, and he recently made some exciting comments about this Chiru-Balayya project, sending fans into a frenzy.
‘Without a Story, It’s a Waste’
Fans are eagerly awaiting the Chiranjeevi-Balakrishna multi-starrer. Both actors have openly declared their readiness to proceed if the script is ready, generating anticipation for the director who will utilize this opportunity. Especially since Megastar Chiranjeevi named Boyapati, expectations for this multi-starrer project are high. Recently, Boyapati commented on the project during an award function related to a channel, stating, “It would be a waste if I don’t write a story for Chiru and Balayya, who are the title of my movie.” This video is going viral.
Why Boyapati?
Many directors attended Balakrishna’s Golden Jubilee celebrations, but Chiranjeevi specifically mentioned Boyapati Srinu, who is known as the go-to director for action films. With blockbuster films like ‘Simha’, ‘Legend’, and ‘Akhanda’ with senior actor Balakrishna, Boyapati is considered the best choice for handling this grand multi-starrer project. Analysts believe that Chiranjeevi might have strongly suggested Boyapati with a challenge in mind. At the same time, senior director Y.V.S. Chowdary and other writers are also suggested indirectly by Chiru to seize this opportunity.
Is it a Guaranteed Mass Story?
Boyapati Srinu knows the pulse of the mass audience well. Both Chiru and Balayya have a huge following among mass audiences. Films like ‘Gang Leader’, ‘Mutha Mestri’ by Chiru, and faction films like ‘Samarasimha Reddy’, ‘Chennakesava Reddy’, and ‘Narasimha Naidu’ by Balayya have been massive hits in C centers. When such heroes come together, the level of the story can be imagined. Sources close to the development suggest that Boyapati is preparing a strong mass story that will present Chiru and Balayya like never before.
Boyapati Competes with Y.V.S. Chowdary!
Based on films like ‘Indra’ and ‘Samarasimha Reddy’, director Y.V.S. Chowdary is ready to write roles for Chiranjeevi and Balakrishna. Recently, there has been significant buzz about his initiatives in this direction. Chowdary, a die-hard fan of the Nandamuri family and having a strong connection with them, has previously made films with Balayya and Harikrishna. However, after being away from the industry for a while, he has announced a new project aiming to bring back Chiru and Balayya together with his story. It remains to be seen whose story will finally be chosen between Chiru and Balayya.
‘Akhanda 2’ to Come First
In Tollywood, the combo of Balakrishna (Balakrishna) and director Boyapati Srinu (Boyapati Srinu) is well-known for hit films like ‘Simha’ (Simha), ‘Legend’ (Legend), and ‘Akhanda’ (Akhanda). They are now ready to start their fourth project together, recently announced under the title ‘Akhanda 2’. The pooja ceremonies for this movie took place grandly in Hyderabad, attended by Balakrishna’s daughters Nara Brahmani (Nara Brahmani), Tejaswini (Tejaswini), and other family members. However, even if Boyapati finalizes the Chiru-Balayya multi-starrer, it will only move to the sets after completing ‘Akhanda 2’.
