It was a huge setback for ace filmmaker Puri Jagannadh when Chiranjeevi rejected Auto Johnny script for his comeback film. The ‘Loafer’ director was completely disappointed when Chiranjeevi stated to the media that he was not satisfied with the second half of script. Puri said that he would have made changes had Chiranjeevi informed him directly. As it was recently confirmed that Chiranjeevi will act in the direction of VV Vinayak, it is clear that Puri is out of the race.

Now, close sources to Puri Jagannadh have informed that he is planning to team up with his favourite actor Ravi Teja. The source adds that Puri will make slight changes to Auto Johnny script to suit Ravi Teja’s mannerisms and stardom. Both Puri and Ravi Teja share a good track record and they might look to extend their success graph with this commercial drama.
