Ace director Sukumar and Superstar Mahesh Babu were supposed to work together for a big budget film under the production of Mythri Movie Makers. Sukumar came up with an intriguing premise set in the backdrop of Seshachalam forests. However, Mahesh was not totally convinced with the final draft and kept the project on hold. Much to everyone’s surprise, it has been officially announced that Sukumar is going to team up with Allu Arjun for his next project.

Reportedly, Sukumar has decided to work on the same story for Allu Arjun’s film. It is exclusively learnt that Bunny will be seen as a forest bandit in this thriller which revolves around the controversial red sanders smuggling of Seshachalam forests. Sukumar has made a few changes to the same script he narrated to Mahesh Babu and got the nod from Allu Arjun. As Mahesh locked Anil Ravipudi for his next film, Sukumar finalized Bunny and roped in the same producers for this project.

The pre production work will kick off very soon and the regular shooting will commence in mid this year. Allu Arjun will simultaneously shoot for both Trivikram and Sukumar’s films.
