Interesting genre for Ram Charan’s next

Ramcharan
Creative director Sukumar will be directing Mega Powerstar Ram Charan later this year and he is currently working on a script for the same. Megastar has given Sukumar the task of revamping Charan’s image and the director is working hard to fulfil this directive.
 
Sukumar has reportedly zeroed in on a science thriller for Charan. This movie reportedly deals with the mysteries of energy and physics. Sukumar is currently working with a team of writers to simplify this subject to the level of a common man, so that even mass crowds can enjoy the film.
 
After doing back to back mass roles, Charan is desperately looking for an image makeover and a hit in A centers and overseas markets. The decision to remake Thani Oruvan and work with Sukumar are steps in that direction.

Devayani Out, Suhasini in

devyani-suhasini

Traditional looking Devayani has won millions of hearts in Tollywood with her girl next door look in many films during 90s decade. She even starred with Powerstar Pawan Kalyan in Suswagatam which was a super hit. However, she faded from the lead actress roles and was best noted for her performance in Nani as Mahesh Babu’s mother.

After years, she bagged a chance to act opposite Malayalam Superstar Mohanlal for Jr NTR’s upcoming flick Janata Garage. But, unfortunately she lost the chance as the makers of Janatha Garrage felt that she wasn’t suiting the character perfectly. However, Devayani is now replaced with another stellar actress Suhasini Maniratnam.

Suhasini is well known for remarkable performances in Telugu post heroine phase such as Nuvvu Naaku Nacchav and Leader. However, it would be quite interesting to see her sharing screen space with Mohanlal this time.

Directed by Koratala Siva, the film also features Samantha and Nithya Menen as the female leads in the film. The shooting is currently progressing at a jet speed and it is slated to hit the screens on August 12th, 2016.

Did you see that hi-tech wheelchair which Nagarjuna uses in Oopiri? Well, you’d be surprised to know that it costs a whopping Rs 25 lakh! Yes, we have reliably learnt that Nag, who plays a quadriplegic millionaire in the film, which is an adaptation of French classic The Intouchables, is seen using this state of the art wheel-chair throughout the film and we hear it was specially designed for him. The chair, was imported from Sweden just to shoot the film and the makers spent a huge sum of Rs 25 lakh for the process.
 
In the film, Nagarjuna is seen as a man confined to a wheelchair after a skydiving accident incapacitates his entire body below the neck. Nagarjuna underwent a lot of training to ensure he doesn’t move his hands or other parts of the body while emoting.
