We
had
recently
reported
that
Mani
Ratnam
had
approached
Mahesh
Babu
for
his
next
movie.
The
latest
news
about
the
project
is
that
yet
another
Telugu
star
has
been
approached.
Well,
the
buzz
says
that
Nagarjuna
is
the
latest
entry
into
the
film.
Mani
Ratnam
has
met
Nagarjuna
a
few
days
ago
after
meeting
Mahesh
Babu.
They
discussed
about
the
project
and
the
Telugu
superstar
gave
a
green
signal
to
the
project
without
a
second
thought.
It
is
said
that
the
director
asked
Nag
whether
he
was
okay
sharing
the
screen
space
with
the
Dookudu
actor,
for
which
Nagarjuna
had
no
issues.
Mani
Ratnam
will
be
having
further
talks
with
both
actors
once
he
completes
the
scripting
works.
Other
cast
and
crew
are
yet
to
be
finalised.
Nagarjuna
and
Mani
Ratnam
had
earlier
worked
in
Telugu
Blockbuster
film
Geethanjali.
The
film
had
won
several
awards.
However,
the
Telugu
actor
is
busy
with
Sri
Jagadguru
Aadi
Sankara,
Bhai
and
Manam.
He
has
to
complete
these
three
movies
before
taking
up
the
new
project.
On
the
other
end,
Mahesh
Babu,
whose
is
basking
in
the
success
of
last-week
release
1:
Nenokkadine,
is
busy
with
Aagadu.
Mani
Ratnam
is
returning
to
a
pure
commercial
movie
after
his
back-to-back
flops
Raavanan
and
Kadal.
