DGP Mahender Reddy Press Meet | We Will take Serious Action Against Fake Social Media Messages

Atlee has solidified his reputation as one of the leading directors in the South film industry. After making his directorial debut with Raja Rani, he went on to collaborate with Thalapathy Vijay on three successful films. His journey expanded to Bollywood with Jawaan, starring Shah Rukh Khan in the lead. Meanwhile, Allu Arjun had plans to work with Atlee, but it appears there’s a delay in their collaboration.

Recent reports suggest that Atlee is currently focusing on projects with Bollywood stars Salman Khan and Shahid Kapoor. There have been talks about Atlee directing a film with Salman Khan, and additionally, he plans to produce a film for Shahid Kapoor, where he will also provide the story. This means Atlee’s return to South cinema could take some time.

After completing his commitments with Salman and Shahid, Atlee will likely turn his attention to directing a South Indian star. Recently, Atlee also produced Baby John and was deeply involved in its production, a role he intends to take on for Shahid Kapoor’s upcoming project as well. As a result, Allu Arjun, who has been waiting for Atlee’s availability, might need to look elsewhere for his next collaboration. In fact, this could be why Allu Arjun recently visited Mumbai to meet with other filmmakers. Further details are yet to emerge.
