Allu Arjun’s New Commitments Clear the Way for NTR

There has been a lot of discussion in Telugu cinema over the past few weeks about a big mythological film planned by director Trivikram Srinivas. At first, the makers officially announced that NTR would play the lead role. However, soon after this announcement, rumors started spreading that Allu Arjun might replace him. This created confusion and also led to fan wars on social media platforms.

Many fans expected clarity during Sankranthi 2026, hoping that the film team would release an official statement. But no confirmation came from the makers, which further increased the speculation. As a result, debates continued about who would finally headline this prestigious project.

Recently, Allu Arjun officially announced his next film with Lokesh Kanagaraj. The makers clearly stated that the shooting will begin in 2026. This project is said to be a high-energy action drama and will demand a lot of time from the actor. Apart from this, Allu Arjun is also committed to a film with Atlee. With two major films already lined up, it looks impossible for him to take up another big project right now.

On the other hand, Trivikram has been working on the script of this mythological drama for a long time and is eager to start filming in 2026. Considering Allu Arjun’s tight schedule, industry sources believe that NTR remains the strongest choice for the lead role.

As per the latest buzz, NTR is clearly in the lead for this film. An official announcement is expected at the right time. The movie will be produced by Haarika & Hassine Creations and is planned on a very large budget, making it one of the most awaited projects in Telugu cinema.
