Bollywood’s charming actress Mrunal Thakur made her Telugu debut with the romantic saga Sita Ramam, directed by Hanu Raghavapudi. She won the hearts of the young and old alike with her portrayal of Sita. She became very popular in Telugu cinema. There is a buzz in the industry that she has bagged a big opportunity to star opposite megastar Chiranjeevi in his upcoming film.
Chiranjeevi, who faced a setback with his recent film Bhola Shankar, is working on two projects. One of them is a remake of the Malayalam hit Bro Daddy and the other is a fantasy adventure film. The film will be directed by Vassishta, who made his debut with Bimbisara. The first look poster of this film, titled #Mega157, was unveiled on Chiranjeevi’s birthday with the tagline ‘Good for the Universe’. It received a tremendous response from the fans. The makers have reportedly roped in Mrunal Thakur as the female lead in this film.
Mega157, which is being produced by UV Creations, will have a significant role for the heroine. The director felt that Mrunal Thakur was the perfect choice for the role. That is why he cast her opposite Chiranjeevi. However, there is no official confirmation on this news yet. But if this is true, then Mrunal will get to romance Chiranjeevi on screen. This will also boost her career prospects in the future.
Meanwhile, Chiranjeevi will also act in a film under his daughter Sushmita Konidela’s production house, Gold Box Entertainments. The film is a remake of Bro Daddy, which was a blockbuster in Malayalam. Mrunal Thakur has two other Telugu films in her kitty. She will be seen with Nani in Hi Nanna, directed by Shouryuv. She will also share screen space with Vijay Deverakonda in #VD13, directed by Parashuram and produced by Dil Raju. Analysts say that if Mrunal gets confirmed as Chiranjeevi’s heroine, she will have a bright future in Tollywood.
