Mega Power Star Ram Charan has got the most exciting lineup of all the T-town heroes at the moment. After Rajamouli’s RRR, he has Shankar’s RC 15. Post this, he has Gowtam Tinnanuri and Prashanth Neel projects as well. Adding to this, Sukumar has already announced that he and Charan will get back together once again.

Now it is being reported that Koratala Siva might also just get added to this lineup in race for Ram Charan. Koratala is penning a script exclusively for Charan and wants to work on it after NTR30. Koratala Siva has been planning to work with the ‘RRR’ star right after Mirchi but it didn’t work out due to script issues.

Both the director and actor have shared a desire to work together since then. While Koratala directed Charan for a crucial portion in Acharya, he also wants to work on a full fledged script exclusively with Mega Power Star.

Currently, Charan is busy with RC 15 and the third schedule of the film is all set to start on 10th February. This 2 weeks long schedule will be shot in East Godavari villages and will feature Anjali and Srikanth as well.

Boyapati Srinu Demanding Huge Remuneration For Movie With Ram

0

Ever since the massive success of Sarrainodu in 2016, Boyapati Srinu has failed to deliver a hit again. All of this changed in 2021, after the release of Akhanda. Ever since, Boyapati Srinu’s market value has gone up greatly.

Usually, when star directors work with medium-range or small-range heroes, the director demands more remuneration than he often would. For example, Boyapati Srinu took a remuneration of 14 crores for Jaya Janaki Nayaka, which featured a small-range hero in the form of Bellamkonda Srinivas. Boyapati took almost 3x the remuneration of the young actor.

Now, Boyapati is doing his next movie with the young sensation Ram Pothineni. Boyapati Srinu is demanding a remuneration of 12 crores for the movie whereas Ram is taking only 6-7 crores. Boyapati Srinu is taking almost 2x the remuneration of Ram for the movie.

Just like Boyapati’s other movies, his next with Ram will also be a mass action entertainer. It will be interesting to see if Boyapati can pull off a hit with an actor like Ram who is usually known for his romantic comedies.

His previous ventures with Ram Charan and Bellamkonda Srinivas did not go well with the audiences. This is a great chance for Boyapati to prove that he can still score a hit with a young actor.
