Telugu
actor
Mahesh
Babu
is
currently
awaiting
the
release
of
Maharshi
which
is
one
of
the
biggest
releases
of
the
year.
Directed
by
Vamsi
Paidapally,
the
film
features
him
in
a
new
avatar
and
has
already
created
a
buzz
amongst
movie
buffs.
Once
Maharshi
hits
screens,
'Prince'
will
turn
his
attention
to
Mahesh
26
which
is
going
to
be
helmed
by
Anil
Ravipudi.
Recently,
it
was
reported
that
Sai
Pallavi
had
refused
to
do
the
movie
as
Mahesh
Babu
fans
had
trolled
her
mercilessly
and
made
it
clear
that
they
wanted
Rashmika
Mandanna
to
romance
the
Super
Star.
Now,
here
is
another
shocking
update
about
Mahesh
26.
As
per
a
leading
website,
Kannada
actor
Upendra
has
refused
to
be
a
part
of
Mahesh
Babu's
film.
The
early
reports
suggested
that
he
turned
down
the
offer
because
of
his
'busy
schedule'.
However,
the
latest
reports
state
that
the
reality
is
quite
different.
Apparently,
he
did
not
like
the
role
being
offered
to
him
and
felt
that
it
lacked
depth.
The
report
further
states
that
the
'Real
Star'
was
not
too
happy
about
his
role
in
S/O
Sathyamurthy
as
well
and
wanted
to
avoid
another
unpleasant
experience.
This
is
indeed
an
unfortunate
situation
and
it
remains
to
be
seen
whether
the
makers
are
able
to
convince
Upendra
to
change
his
mind.
On
a
related
note,
Upendra
currently
has
I
Love
You,
Uppi
Rupee
and
Home
Minister
in
his
kitty.
