Will Director Atlee Wait for NTR?

Vijay-starrer Tamil film “Bigil”, which is going to be released in Telugu as “Whistle”, is creating a sensation on the internet.

The Tamil film’s trailer has gained attention from all languages and is setting new records in terms of YouTube views.

The film’s director Atlee, known as a man who knows the pulse of current audiences, is in much demand.

Even before signing up “Bigil”, Atlee met NTR Jr and expressed his interest to direct a film with the star. He even took certain amount as advance from producer Ashwini Dutt for NTR’s project.

However, NTR asked him to wait till he completes the shoot of Rajamouli’s “RRR”. Back then, NTR thought that he would be finishing the shoot of Rajamouli’s movie by February 2020 and hoped to take up Atlee’s film from March or April.

But the shoot of “RRR” is getting delayed. The latest reports suggest that it would continue till July/August.

What will Atlee do now? Will he wait for NTR or take up another interesting project as several other top stars are after him?

Bollywood buzz has it that Shah Rukh Khan has signed him for a Hindi project.
