Prabhas is currently busy with the shooting of a new film titled Saaho in the direction of Sujeeth. Soon after completing this project, the actor is expected to begin his next in the direction of Radha Krishna Kumar. UV Creations is the production house that is bankrolling both the movies. Apparently, the latest rumours reveal that Prabhas may team up with Kollywood director Atlee who recently created a sensation with Ilayadalapathy Vijay’s Mersel which released in Telugu as Adirindi. The film is said to be bilingual and is going to have an interesting social message. Atlee Kumar made his debut with the film Raja Rani. As of now, there is no clarity on the project, and we are awaiting a final confirmation of the same.
Known is that hunk hero Prabhas will be featuring in youngster Sujith's upcoming movie whose shooting already got started. Their plan is to release a teaser of the movie along with Baahubali: The Conclusion such that audience will know what to expect from Prabhas' next. And Prabhas is not taking it easy when it comes to standing by his words that he will at least do two films a year from now onwards. Reports are coming out that he has picked up a young Tamil director who made two dashing movies that have stunned Tamil box office and also impressed Telugu folks. Other day at both Ramoji Film City and also at the pre-release party, director Atlee made his presence felt in Hyderabad. He's the one who made films like Raja Rani whose melodic love story created a storm, while his action film Theri with Vijay has simply shocked all the action lovers. With him not attending any other function in Tollywood post the success of those films and only attending Baahubali 2 event, there seem to be something to read between the lines. Otherwise, what is the connection between Atlee and Rajamouli that the young director attended the event? We have to wait for a while to know what is really cooking.
Rebel star Prabhas who just did two movies in the last four years, had promised to do at least two films in a year. He is set to join the set of Run Raja Run fame Sujeeth’s directorial venture soon, which will be produced by UV Creations. It is big budget bilingual movie and the makers are planning to attach the teaser of this untitled venture with Baahubali 2. According to the latest update, Prabhas has given his verbal consent to do a movie with a young Tamil director, who has delivered only two movies in his career. Recently at Ramoji Film City and at Pre-release party event, director Atlee who made Arya starrer Raja Rani and Vijay starrer Theri, was spotted in Hyderabad. After delivering his both directorial ventures, Atlee did not make his come back in Hyderabad and his presence at Baahubli:The Conclusion event, gave surprise to the audiences and now everyone is expecting that something is cooking between Prabhas and Atlee. Let’s wait for official confirmation.
Tamil filmmaker, Atlee is the most sought-after director in the south post the success of Mersal. He has only directed hit films to date and we at 123telugu had reported a long time back that he will be directing Prabhas in 2018. This news died away with the arrival of Baahubali 2 and Atlee got busy with Mersal. But now, the Tamil film circles are once again abuzz that this film might get a shape soon. The reports reveal that Atlee is in plans to make this film and will soon take further steps in this process. Prabhas is currently busy with Saaho and Atlee is currently scripting for his next. An official confirmation is yet to be made on this news.
Three-film-old director Atlee has carved a niche for himself in the Tamil film industry with consecutive hits. His recently-released film Mersal, starring Vijay, Nithya Menen, Samantha and Kajal Aggarwal went on to become one of the biggest blockbusters of 2017. It was reported that Atlee's next film would also be with Vijay, after their collaborations, Mersal and Theri. However, there was no official confirmation regarding this. Vijay has moved on to his next project which will be helmed by director AR Murugadoss. This untitled film will go on floors sometime in January. Meanwhile, it is being speculated that Atlee has approached Baahubali star Prabhas for his next project. The filmmaker has reportedly met Prabhas to narrate the story and the screenplay of his next, which is said to be penned by KV Vijayendra Prasad, who worked in Baahubali, Mersal and Bajrangi Bhaijaan. However, nothing is concrete as of now, as the actor is presently shooting for Sujeeth's Saaho. Atlee had planned to do a film with Prabhas earlier, but the actor was busy with Baahubali and had to postpone it. Will the Mersal director call shots for the Baahubali icon? Only time will tell. Prabhas had completed the first schedule of Saaho a few weeks back, and would be joining the team for the next leg of shooting on January 5.
Atlee’s next after the blockbuster Mersal most likely to be with Prabhas ! For the last few months, talks have been going around about Atlee planning a movie with ‘Baahubali’ star Prabhas. In a recent interaction with a bunch of college students, Atlee even hinted the same, but without revealing the name. He is quoted saying, “My next will be a big Telugu film, with a leading star. I request everyone to wait for a few more days, as the discussions are still going on.” Even though Atlee stopped from revealing the Telugu star’s name, reports strongly suggest Prabhas to be the top contender. Prabhas meanwhile is shooting for Saaho directed by Sujeeth. It is an ambitious film with a plethora of actors from industries across the country. Bollywood diva Shraddha Kapoor is playing the female lead. Jackie Shroff, Neil Nitin Mukesh, Mandira Bedi, Tamil actor Arun Vijay and Lal are playing prominent roles in the movie. If reports are to be believed, Prabhas is also in talks for a romantic film with director Radha Krishna Kumar. Pooja Hedge is said to be playing the female lead. An official announcement has not yet been made.
