While Tollywood’s first space film, featuring the young Mega prince Varun Tej, is all set for release on this Friday – the actor of Anthariksham has got a setback from the makers of his upcoming film.
Varun Tej has signed a big budget film for 14 Reels Plus banner, which’s to be directed by Ayyare fame Sagar Chandra. The untitled film was scheduled to hit shooting floors after the Anthariksham. But, going by the latest reports from Film Nagar, the producers (Ram Achanta and Gopichand Achanta) are planning to shelve this film considering the budget (33 Cr), that was planned, would be too heavy for Varun Tej’s market to pull off.
Though Varun is delivering back to back hits, his market potential hasn’t expanded much. Also, the Sagar K Chandra is a budding director who in the past made Ayyare & Appatlo Okadundevadu. Even, this could have been one of the reasons to hold Varun Tej’s film. However, if Antariksham shatters the box-office with an impressive run, that would clear the clouds over his next film.
