Exclusive: Producer Allu Aravind Planning To Go Really BIG In Bollywood Post Shahid Kapoor’s Jersey!
Allu Aravind is all set to spread his wings in Bollywood, far and wide. The renowned Telugu producer is making his comeback in Bollywood after almost 14 years of his previous production venture Ghajini that featured Aamir Khan as the lead. Aravind is currently backing Gowtam Tinnanuri's film Jersey starring Shahid Kapoor and Mrunal Thakur in the lead roles. The sports drama, which is a Hindi remake of the Telugu blockbuster Jersey, has high expectations pinned on it.
During the trailer launch of the Hindi remake Jersey in Mumbai where Filmibeat was present, when asked if he had plans of bringing together his actor son Allu Arjun and another Bollywood star for a biggie, Aravind confessed that he has definitely thought about it. However, he stressed more about his next move in Bollywood - revealing that things are being discussed and plans are being made for something bigger! He further added that those will be revealed and discussed later in time, as he is currently focussing on Shahid Kapoor's Jersey.
Aravind made his Bollywood debut with the 1990 film Pratibandh, which interestingly also marked Tollywood's Megastar Chiranjeevi's (who is also the producer's brother-in-law) maiden venture in the Hindi film industry. His other Hindi films include The Gentleman, Mere Sapno Ki Rani, Kaun?, Kunwara, Kya Yehi Pyaar Hai, Calcutta Mail and Ghajini.
Notably, the producer has always made sure to offer equal opportunities to artistes from the Telugu industry in his Bollywood ventures and the cast and crew members in the aforementioned films serve as proof. Well now, with his 'big plans' in Bollywood being highly discussed and speculated on social media, one will have to wait and watch to see what surprises he unveils in the days to come.
On a related note, Allu Aravind is also bankrolling latest Bollywood heartthrob Kartik Aryan's film Shehzada, which is a remake of the Telugu film Ala Vaikunthapurramuloo that starred Allu Arjun.
