There are many things to consider when working on the cast and crew for a film especially when it involves a star hero. The fundamental is clear in such projects that only branded and established stars are taken for character roles and the same is happening for the new movie of superstar Mahesh Babu too. But here is the twist.

The latest reports reveal the powerhouse performer Prakash Raj has been roped in to essay the role of Mahesh Babu’s father in the new movie which is being helmed by the extravagant filmmaker Vamshi Paidipally. It is heard that Prakash plays a very important and powerful role in the film. While that is good, here is the flip side.

In the recent past, Prakash Raj got into quite a bit of online scuffles with his political statements and anti-Modi campaigns. He has been quite active in the Karnataka segment so it has to be seen if that is going to garner any backlash during this film’s release. For now, the shooting has commenced at Dehradun in north India.
