Actor
Allu
Arjun
says
he
has
received
an
offer
to
star
in
a
Hindi
film
but
his
fans
up
north
will
have
to
wait.
The
39-year-old
actor,
whose
latest
Telugu
film
Pushpa:
The
Rise
has
grossed
Rs
300
cr
worldwide
since
its
release
on
December
17,
said
he
is
open
to
the
idea
of
working
in
a
true-blue
Bollywood
movie
provided
the
project
is
exciting.
“I
have
got
an
offer
but
nothing
concrete
or
exciting.
Hopefully
soon
(it
will
happen).
It
does
take
courage,
you
have
to
risk
it
(to
work
in
another
industry),”
Arjun
told
PTI.
Son
of
noted
producer
Allu
Aravind,
the
actor
is
known
for
films
like
Bunny,
Arya,
Desamuduru,
Parugu,
and
Ala
Vaikunthapurramuloo,
among
others.
After
spending
about
two
decades
in
the
Telugu
film
industry,
Arjun
said
he
is
not
interested
in
playing
second
fiddle
to
another
actor
when
he
takes
up
a
Hindi
script.
“When
we
are
the
protagonist
of
the
films
that
we
do,
anybody
who
comes
to
us
will
only
come
with
the
offer
to
play
a
protagonist,
I
would
not
be
interested
in
anything
(else).
And
it
is
very
well
understood."
“Even
the
other
person
will
not
come
and
it
doesn't
make
sense
to
ask
such
a
big
star
to
play
a
second
role
as
it
damages
the
film,
they
also
know
it.
You
have
to
work
as
a
protagonist,
as
a
main
lead,”
he
added.
The
actor
is
happy
with
the
glorious
run
of
Pushpa:
The
Rise,
which
has
collected
Rs
56.69
crore
from
its
Hindi-dubbed
version.
Directed
by
Sukumar
of
Arya
fame,
the
action
drama
was
also
released
in
Tamil,
Malayalam,
and
Kannada
languages.
Meanwhile,
Arjun's
2020
action-drama
Ala
Vaikunthapurramuloo
is
being
remade
in
Hindi
as
Shehzada
with
Kartik
Aaryan
in
the
lead.
