Mega157: Anil Ravipudi's Chiru Film, Heroine Signed?

Fans have been extremely excited about Anil Ravipudi and Chiranjeevi's highly anticipated collaboration on Mega157, particularly in light of Ravipudi's huge box office triumph with Sankranthiki Vasthunnam, which surpassed 300 crore. Although fans were excited for this formidable team to appear together on screen, new information indicates that plans may have changed.

It has recently been revealed that Anil Ravipudi had apparently considering Nayanthara for the heroine's part in Mega157, despite initial reports linking the movie with other prominent heroines. According to sources, the actress has already been approached by the producers for the part. But the makers were reportedly taken aback when Nayanthara requested a substantial payment of Rs 18 crore. The producers are now reevaluating their options and might possibly be looking for a another heroine to join the film because of the hefty asking price.

It is interesting to note that Nayanthara and Chiranjeevi previously appeared together on cinema in the popular Godfather adaptation Malayalam blockbuster Lucifer, in which Nayanthara portrayed Chiranjeevi's step-sister. Concerns are being expressed regarding their relationship, namely how their previous roles as sister and brother may affect their new pairing, given the likelihood of their reunion in Mega157. Fans will have to wait to see how this plays out and whether it will give their chemistry in the next project a new dimension.
