The much-anticipated collaboration between Natural Star Nani and director Sujeeth is steadily progressing, with the film currently in its active shooting phase. While expectations were already high for this fresh pairing, the project has now gained even more traction with the latest and most exciting update is that Malayalam superstar Prithviraj Sukumaran has officially been roped in to play the filmās main antagonist.
This casting choice has generated significant buzz across South Indian cinema circles. Prithviraj Sukumaran, known for his commanding screen presence and versatility, is widely regarded as one of the finest actors of his generation. His foray into Telugu cinema has been selective, and whenever he has taken up negative or grey-shaded roles, he has left a lasting impact. With this film, audiences can expect a powerful face-off between Naniās grounded, naturalistic acting style and Prithvirajās intense, authoritative portrayal.
Directed by Sujeeth, who previously made waves with stylish and technically rich films, the project is said to be mounted on a grand scale. Industry sources suggest that the film blends strong emotional drama with action-packed sequences, and the antagonistās role plays a crucial part in driving the narrative forward. Bringing Prithviraj on board reportedly strengthens the script and elevates the conflict at the heart of the story.
For Nani, this film marks another attempt at expanding his on-screen persona by taking on a more intense and layered character. Known for consistently choosing content-driven scripts, Naniās collaboration with Sujeeth is expected to showcase him in a slightly different light, balancing mass appeal with meaningful storytelling.
Prithvirajās inclusion also adds strong pan-Indian appeal to the project. With a massive fan base in Malayalam cinema and growing recognition across other industries, his presence is likely to boost the filmās reach beyond the Telugu-speaking audience. The makers are reportedly planning to present him in a menacing and stylish avatar, making his character one of the highlights of the film.
With shooting underway and major casting updates creating excitement, the NaniāSujeeth film is shaping up to be one of the most awaited projects in the coming months. Further details regarding the title, supporting cast, and release plans are expected to be announced soon, keeping fans eagerly hooked to every update.
