Star
kids
taking
up
acting
in
South
films
is
not
new.
Many
stars
from
the
present
generation
have
filmi
background
and
now
yet
another
star
kid
is
ready
to
don
grease
paint.
Well,
it
is
none
other
than
Prince
Mahesh
Babu's
son
Gautham
Krishna.
Grapevine
is
abuzz
with
the
news
that
Mahesh
Babu's
seven-year-old
son
is
set
to
make
his
acting
debut
as
a
child
artist.
Director
Sukumar
is
the
man
behind
the
idea
and
is
trying
his
best
to
make
it
possible.
It
has
to
be
noted
that
the
Dookudu
star
made
his
debut
in
his
father
Krishna's
film
Needa
in
1979.
If
everything
goes
as
planned,
Gautham
Krishna
will
be
doing
the
role
of
the
young
Mahesh
Babu
in
the
forthcoming
Telugu
film.
The
star
kid
will
be
undergoing
a
screen
test
soon.
However,
Namrata
Shirodkar,
the
wife
of
Mahesh
Babu,
has
neither
denied
nor
admitted
the
news.
All
she
said
was
that
the
makers
of
the
movie
are
in
talks
but
nothing
is
confirmed
yet.
