Prince Mahesh's triple becomes double?

Prince Mahesh Babu has actually entered the books of history by becoming the first Telugu star to have been signed by a corporate banner and that too for multiple movies. Ideally, Mahesh was to do three movies with them but now there is news that given the dismal performance of their first film 'Athidhi', they have decided to make Mahesh as their hero for the next movie only and the one after that, they will find a replacement. More details and confirmation are required.
