Nagarjuna's next film: All eyes on the actor's birthday!

HYDERABAD: Almost a year after the release of his last film, "The Ghost," Akkineni Nagarjuna is gearing up to start shooting for his next project. Despite months of speculation, Nagarjuna has kept quiet about his upcoming ventures, leaving his fans in anticipation. Thankfully, the suspense will come to an end in just a few more days.

According to the latest reports, Nagarjuna's next project is set to be officially announced on August 29th, marking his 64th birthday. It seems that Nagarjuna is planning to make this birthday a memorable one for his fans by revealing his future commitments. It's been rumored that Nagarjuna will be playing the lead role in the Telugu remake of the Malayalam period drama "Porinju Mariam Jose." Additionally, he's also expected to play a significant role in the Dhanush-Sekhar Kammula film, which was recently launched.

Initially, Nagarjuna considered launching writer Prasanna Kumar Bezawada as the director of his project. However, due to creative differences, the decision was made to have Prasanna Kumar serve as the script and dialogue writer instead. Choreographer Vijay Binni is reportedly in talks to direct this project. Sources have revealed that Nagarjuna acquired the remake rights after discovering that Prasanna Kumar's script was loosely inspired by "Porinju Mariam Jose."

Furthermore, it's been heard that Nagarjuna was impressed by the character created by Sekhar Kammula for Dhanush's film and readily agreed to be a part of it. This means that Nagarjuna will be simultaneously shooting for both of these projects, giving his fans a double dose of excitement to look forward to.
