Jagapathi Babu as Chiranjeevi

P.A. Arun Prasad of Thammudu and Bhale Vaadivi Boss-U! fame is all set to direct Jagapathi Babu in his forthcoming film. The film is tentatively titled Maa Naanna Chiranjeevi. Arun Prasad, who also directed small movies such as Gowtham SSC and Prema Sandadi in the past, is directing two films currently. One of them stars Brahmanandam and Y.S. Rajasekhar Reddy himself as the Chief Minister. The other one, Yaagam, starring Navadeep, Kim Sharma, and Bhumika in Bhumika's home production, is wrapping up soon. The venture planned with Jagapathi Babu may thus have to wait some more.

Meanwhile, Jagapathi Babu is still a producers' favorite star despite flops such as Siddham and Bangaaru Babu and average flick such as Adhineta. He's busy with a string of films up his sleeve. Srinivas Reddy of Yamagola Malli Modalaindi is doing his next with Jagapathi Babu, and Madan of Pellaina Kotthalo... is back with Pravarakhyudu with the hero. The next couple of months will thus see the muhurtam clap for at least three movies of Jagapathi Babu.
