Chiranjeevi’s 151st film is based on the life story of freedom fighter Uyyalawada Narsimhareddy Nayanthara has been finalised for the female lead The title is also being changed to Mahaveera according to sources
After the huge success of the much-awaited Chiranjeevi’s 150 film, all eyes are now reverted to his next venture. His 151 film was finalised and set to hit the sets in August. The film is based on the life history of freedom fighter Uyyalawada Narsimhareddy and Nayanthara has been finalised for the female lead role. She reportedly demanded a Rs 4 crore remuneration to act in the film which the producer Ram Charan accepted.
There is a recent talk that the title of the film may be changed. Since the story is based on great warrior Uyyalawada, ‘Mahaveera’ (Great Warrior) seemed to be apt as the title. It is believed that strong titles always worked for films with strong content like ‘Magadheera’ and ‘Bahubali’. So ‘Mahaveera’ would be a suitable title for the film.
The film unit planned to start the film shoot on August 22nd, the birthday of Chiranjeevi but Chiru felt that since this is the story of a freedom fighter, it would be apt to start the shoot on Independence Day, August 15th.
This movie would be released in Telugu, Hindi, Tamil and Malayalam. Nayanathara generally charges two and half to three crores per film and since this is a 4-language film, her remuneration of Rs 4 crore seems to be worthwhile.
