Akkineni Nagarjuna was known as Manmadhudu and good producer encouraging the new generation hero's didn't get a success after Soggade Chinni Nayana and Oopiri films which were released in 2016. His latest flick Devdas has fared decently at the box office but not a commercial hit. He has not signed any Telugu films after Devdas but he started working for three different language films. Those are Marakkar ( Malayalam Film) Starring opposite Mohan Lal, Brahmastra ( Hindi Film) and an untitled film ( Tamil) directing by Dhanush. He is interested to do a sequel to his previous blockbuster Soggade Chinni Nayana. But the director Kalyan Krishna has not finalized the script. Besides this, director Kalyan Krishna was delivered disaster movie Nela Ticket in 2018 and he lost credibility at Nagarjuna with that failure.
