Amaravati 2.0 LIVE : అమరావతి పునఃప్రారంభం | PM Modi in Amaravati | CM Chandrababu | Pawan Kalyan

Megastar Chiranjeevi continues to enjoy a strong mass phase in his career ever since his comeback with Khaidi No. 150. With his Sankranthi 2026 release “Mana Shankara Varaprasad Garu”, he is set to entertain audiences on a grand scale once again. Meanwhile, exciting rumours are already swirling about his next project.

After this festive release, Chiranjeevi is expected to begin work on his prestigious 158th film, directed by Bobby Kolli. This project marks their reunion after the blockbuster Waltair Veerayya, and expectations around it are already sky-high. Reports suggest that former Miss World Aishwarya Rai Bachchan could be paired opposite Chiranjeevi, a combination that would be rare and instantly boost the film’s pan-India appeal. While Aishwarya Rai has mostly stayed away from commercial cinema in recent years, she was last seen pairing with Superstar Rajinikanth in Robo. Fans are eagerly waiting to see if she will join forces with Chiranjeevi this time.

In addition, rumours indicate that AR Rahman might compose the music for #Mega158, and Malayalam superstar Mohanlal could appear in a powerful cameo. While these reports have created a buzz, official confirmations are still awaited, keeping fans on the edge of their seats for what promises to be a blockbuster cinematic treat.
