RX100
director
Ajay
Bhupathi
recently
announced
his
next
film
titled
Maha
Samudram.
The
filmmaker
cast
Sharwanand
after
Naga
Chaitanya
reportedly
walked
out
of
the
film.
Ajay
had
earlier
planned
to
rope
in
Naga
Chaitanya
and
Samantha
Akkineni
for
the
film.
But
after
Chaitanya's
exit,
the
director
is
now
reportedly
planning
to
replace
Samantha.
A
report
published
in
a
leading
portal
suggests
that
Ajay
Bhupathi
is
planning
to
cast
World
Famous
Lover
actress
Aishwarya
Rajesh
opposite
Sharwanand
in
Maha
Samudram.
If
reports
are
to
be
believed,
the
director
feels
Samantha
and
Sharwanand's
pairing
could
affect
the
film's
business,
as
they
had
recently
featured
together
in
a
flop
film,
Jaanu.
Hence,
he
doesn't
want
to
take
any
risk
by
pairing
the
duo
again.
However,
there
is
no
official
confirmation
about
the
same.
Talking
about
Maha
Samudram,
the
film
is
touted
to
be
an
intense
romantic
action
drama
which
will
be
released
in
Telugu
and
Tamil.
The
production
house
AK
Entertainments
had
released
a
statement
about
the
film
which
read,
"The
title
Maha
Samudram
sounds
interesting
and
promises
to
be
a
well-packaged
entertainer.
Ajay
Bhupathi
has
written
a
powerful
yet
stunning
script
that
presents
Sharwanand
in
a
challenging
role.
The
actor
is
excited
to
kick-start
the
proceedings."
