Chiranjeevi Shuts Rumors About Playing Prabhas’ Father Role

In the world of Tollywood, rumors spread faster than wildfire, and the latest one involved Megastar Chiranjeevi. Buzz has been circulating that Chiranjeevi will play the father of Pan India star Prabhas in the upcoming film Spirit, directed by Sandeep Reddy Vanga. Fans and media speculated endlessly, but the megastar has now clarified the matter himself.

Chiranjeevi is currently busy with two major projects: Vishwambhara and Mana Shankara Vara Prasad, the latter set to release this Sankranti. With his schedule packed and films lined up as the main hero, there is no space for a guest appearance, let alone playing Prabhas’ father. Sources from the industry also confirm that Prabhas has no intention of requesting Chiranjeevi for such a role, and Sandeep Reddy Vanga would not pursue it either.

The rumors gained traction because fans are always eager to see megastars together on screen. While the excitement is understandable, trade experts emphasize that the claim has no truth. Chiranjeevi’s focus remains on his hero-centric projects, and taking a supporting or guest role could affect his current and future films. The timing of the projects and commitments makes it impossible for him to appear in Spirit in such a role.

With Mana Shankara Vara Prasad releasing this Sankranti and Vishwambhara slated for the summer, Chiranjeevi’s schedule is fully occupied. Fans can expect him to continue delivering strong lead performances rather than playing a supporting father role. The industry and audiences now await Spirit to see Prabhas shine without speculated surprises, while Chiranjeevi continues his journey as the unstoppable megastar.
