In the Telugu film industry, Superstar Mahesh Babu has been making waves, especially with his latest release for Sankranti, "Gunturodu," although it didn’t garner the expected buzz.
He’s set to work on a pan-world movie under the direction of Rajamouli, promising a global blockbuster that has fans excited. This project might span over three years and it's unclear if it will be released in parts or as a single film. Over the years, many directors have openly expressed their desire to work with Mahesh Babu, crafting stories with him in mind. However, due to various reasons, some scripts rejected by Mahesh found their way to other actors, and Tamil superstar Suriya ended up starring in three such movies. Two of these were blockbusters, while one fell short of expectations.
"Singam" directed by KS Ravikumar was initially pitched to Mahesh Babu. Planned as a bilingual film, it eventually went to Suriya and turned out to be a disaster in Tamil. The film "24," directed by Vikram K. Kumar, received a warm reception. Initially presented to Mahesh Babu, the actor passed on it due to the script not resonating with him. Suriya took on the lead role and the film was a success in both Telugu and Tamil. Lastly, "7th Sense" by director AR Murugadoss also initially reached out to Mahesh. Despite liking the story, Mahesh couldn’t envision himself in the role due to the distinct character designs, leading to Suriya taking it on and earning acclaim.
