Recently,
it
was
rumoured
that
Tamil
filmmaker
Shankar
would
be
teaming
up
with
Prabhas
for
an
action-entertainer
and
this
created
a
fair
deal
of
buzz
among
movie
buffs.
Some
reports
even
claimed,
the
magnum
opus
would
feature
a
strong
message,
which
piqued
the
curiosity
big
time.
Now,
here
is
a
shocking
update
about
the
developing
situation.
According
to
Cinejosh,
it
is
unlikely
that
the
2.0
director
will
be
joining
hands
with
'Darling'
in
the
near
future.
As
per
an
inside
source,
Shankar
usually
prefers
working
with
Tamil
stars
as
opposed
to
those
from
other
industries,
which
virtually
rules
out
any
chance
of
him
teaming
up
with
the
Tollywood
heartthrob.
"Shankar
exhibits
region
and
language
bias
to
the
core.
That's
why,
he
always
prefers
to
work
with
only
Tamil
top
heroes
instead
of
other
language
heroes.
Earlier,
several
speculations
floated
around
Tollywood's
top
heroes
would
be
working
with
Shankar's
combo.
But
then,
none
of
those
gossips
has
been
proved
right,"
(sic)
claimed
the
source.
If
this
is
indeed
the
case,
cinemagoers
are
bound
to
be
disappointed.
Meanwhile,
Shankar
is
working
on
the
Kamal
Haasan
starrer
Indian
2,
a
sequel
to
the
1996
hit
Indian/Hindustani.
The
biggie,
revolving
around
the
exploits
of
an
aged
freedom
fighter,
stars
Kajal
Aggarwal
as
the
heroine,
marking
her
first
collaboration
with
the
veteran
actor.
Rakul
Preet
and
Siddharth
too
are
a
part
of
the
flick.
On
the
other
hand,
Prabhas
will
soon
be
resuming
work
on
'Jaan',
directed
by
Radha
Krishna
Kumar.
The
Telugu-Hindi
bilingual,
stars
Pooja
Hegde
as
the
leading
lady
and
this
is
one
of
its
big
highlights.
The
romantic-drama
is
slated
to
hit
screens
sometime
in
2020.
There
has
also
been
a
talk
of
him
teaming
up
with
Koratala
Siva
for
an
actioner,
backed
by
Ram
Charan.
