The legendary Telugu actress, Savitri defined what a Telugu woman could be and should be on screen. She represented a generation on the Celluloid and anything featuring her is still remarked as gold even today. A movie on such a great actress needs to be the perfect one that anybody can ever make. Director Naga Ashwin is trying to do just that but his choice of actors has been beyond our imagination.
He took Keerthy Suresh to portray Savitri on screen and then the reports say that Arjun Reddy's Preeti aka Shalini Pandey is being cast as Jamuna. Also, when you're talking about Savitri's life, you can't discount the amazing influence that NTR, ANR and SVR had on her as she almost acted all her movies with them. As her husband, Kadhal Mannan, Gemini Ganeshan, Dulquer Salmaan has been cast but nothing has been announced about the casting of ANR and NTR roles.
We hear that Manchu Mohan Babu is confirmed for SVR's role in the movie. As per few reports, Vijay Devarakonda is playing ANR and Prakash Raj is playing NTR. We cannot assure this piece of information but this has been the biggest scoop as off now. Samantha Ruth Prabhu is cast as the journalist who narrates Savitri's story to us. We may have to wait for few more days to know every detail about the project, Mahanati!
