Baasha-Kaaka Rumours: Kona Puts Full Stop
X

Writer Kona Venkat is associated with the movie Megastar Chiranjeevi’s “Kaaka”, directed by KS Bobby of Waltair Veerayya fame, and has finally chosen to put some rumours to rest. Recently, some rumours have carried huge weight, as the details with which they are fabricated make them feel believable. Here’s what it is, actually.

A couple of days ago it came out that the shooting of Megastar Chiranjeevi’s latest movie ‘Kaaka’ has been put on hold by the star hero himself, as he felt that the storyline and the scenes are pretty much close to Rajnikanth’s Baasha movie only. Of course, the hero is shown as a simple guy, but a don/gangster/powerful person in the flashback is called a Baasha-style screenplay, and many heroes have done it many times already. So what’s worrying Kaaka then?

Clarifying the same, Kona wrote on his Instagram, “Once again - Rest in Peace all the rumours, all fake news, all the baseless articles about “KAAKA” - Sorry to disappoint you but we are landing on Jan 13th 🚀 “.

Thus, he has put an end to rumours, but then, actually, this clarity is expected from the production house KVN Productions, rather than Kona Venkat, says few people in the know, who are worried that Kaaka is actually going through some script changes in the last minute.
