Koratala Siva’s Acharya is one the big-ticket films that Tollywood awaits. The film starring Chiranjeevi also has Ram Charan where the latter plays a cameo but pivotal role. The movie was supposed to hit the screens in August, but with COVID and the subsequent lockdown all the shoots have been put on hold indefinitely. Apart from Acharya, Charan also has Rajamouli’s RRR which is a pan-Indian film.
With RRR shoot to happen, Charan’s presence at Acharya looks in limbo. Now buzz has it that makers are on look out for another actor to replace Charan. While this would be another herculean task to get the apt actor who fits the bill for the role. Meanwhile, with 30% of the shoot done before lockdown, remaining shoot is planned to get completed by the year end so that the film can get festive release. Bankrolled by Charan under his home production – Konidela Production, it has Kajal Aggarwal as the female lead.
