Varun Tej, facing box office struggles after his action films 'Gandeevadhari Arjuna' and 'Operation Valentine' flopped in 2023 and 2024 respectively, might be taking a turn towards new genres.
Varun, however, seems determined for a strong comeback. Rumors suggest he has been impressed with a crime and adventure thriller concept narrated by director Merlapaka Gandhi.
Varun is said to have responded positively to the story, which is envisioned as a pan-Indian project. While the film requires a significant budget, the makers are currently working out the financials. An official announcement is expected soon.
Merlapaka Gandhi, known for his initial hits like 'Venkatadri Express' and 'Express Raja,' hasn't been able to replicate that success recently. His 2022 film 'Like, Share & Subscribe' bombed at the box office. With both Varun Tej and Merlapaka Gandhi carrying a string of flops, the question remains: will this collaboration deliver a hit? Fans will have to wait and see if this project materializes.
