Exclusive: Amitabh Bachchan to star in Chiranjeevi's next film?

The latest update about Chiranjeevi’s forthcoming film Uyyalawada Narasimha Reddy, biopic of the Telugu freedom fighter of the same name, is that the team has approached Bollywood superstar Amitabh Bachchan for a crucial cameo in the film. Apparently, the makers approached Amitabh and even narrated the script to him although he is yet to give his nod.

“Amitabhji promised to share screen space with Chiranjeevi in his 150th film, but for some reasons, that did not materialise. So, the makers are planning to rope in the star for Chiru’s 151st film, if things work out. It all depends on Amitji’s dates,” says a source.

Earlier this year, Balakrishna and filmmaker Krishna Vamsi had approached Amitabh for a cameo, but Big B had to turn down the offer due to lack of dates. Given his packed schedule, will he say yes to Chiru? Only time will tell.
