Producer Dil Raju introduced director Sukumar to the Telugu film industry with Arya. Sukumar’s second film, Jagadam, was also initially planned under the same collaboration, but due to creative differences, it ended up with a different producer.
After that, for many reasons, the Arya director and producer combo did not repeat, and the latest/exciting buzz is that Dil Raju is planning to do a film with Sukumar now.
With the Pushpa series, Sukumar has become a pan-India director, and from Rangasthalam, Sukumar has continuously been doing films with Mythri Movie Makers. His next film with Ram Charan has already been signed under the Mythri banner.
Dil Raju plans a film with Sukumar, but the director’s lineup is packed
The film is set to begin production in early 2026, and following this project, Dil Raju has plans to collaborate with Sukumar on another film.
Sukumar and Allu Arjun have already announced Pushpa 3, and if that film materializes after Ram Charan’s project, then again it will be under the Mythri banner only. We need to see whether the director can allot dates for Dil Raju going forward.
