Megastar Chiranjeevi in early 90's when he was at his peak did debut in Hindi with Gentleman remake, Aaj ka Goonda Raj. He did two other films but did not become as successful compared to Rajnikanth, Nagarjuna and Kamal Hassan.
Now, for his next movie, the 151st, Chiru decided to pick up Uyyalavada Narasimha Reddy biopic has the story in the direction of Surrender Reddy. While he decided to go with safe budget for a Telugu regional film at first, now he is thinking to take it National taking inspiration from Baahubali. Prabhas, is using the image created by the movie, by taking his next to Hindi and Tamil. Mahesh too trying his luck with Spyder. Even Duvvada Jagannadam of Bunny is scheduled for a Hindi release.
The big question is can Chiranjeevi attract North audience after all these years? He is aged now and with six pack heroes taking over the reins can his historical give him the extra leverage that he hopes to gain by exploring the market? Hardcore fans might say, Yes, but it is not that easy at his age to compete with younger brigade. Well, we hope the production values and VFX does help him crack the Hindi market this time as even in Hindi, period dramas and biopics have become a thing.
