Gone are the days when directors finalize a script and then find a suitable actor who fits the bill. These days, it is the combination which is given much priority than the story. Quite often we are noticing many projects getting announced even before the director involved is ready with a script. Recently, Naga Chaitanya’s film with Maruthi was officially announced by Sithara Entertainments banner. Apparently, Maruthi has no story for Chaitu and the announcement came as a surprise. However, the film went on floors after Maruthi had readied a script.

Now, it is once again learnt that one more project was confirmed before the director has a story on hand. During Hello promotions, Akkineni Nagarjuna revealed that Vikram Kumar will soon team up with Naga Chaitanya. Many felt that this is an interesting combination and were eagerly waiting to see what the duo has in store for them. However, Vikram is yet to work on the script for this project. It is heard that he has not yet finalized the storyline and the project might not happen immediately. Vikram revealed that he and Chaitu are yet to discuss on what genre are they going to work on.

Before directing Chaitu, the Manam director is looking to work on another Telugu project and Nani is likely to play the lead role in it. So, Vikram Kumar’s film with Chaitu might go on floors in 2019.
