It is already reported that Manchu Vishnu will be acting under the direction of debutant Hanuman. If the ongoing buzz in the film and social media circles is to be believed, the Dynamic Star will be playing a superhero in the film. If the news indeed becomes true, this will be the revival of the superhero genre in Tollywood.
In the past, legendary actor NTR appeared in the Tollywood adaptation of Hollywood’s Superman in the 1980 film titled Superman. The film thrilled the audiences big-time but surprisingly, no other actor or director attempted a superhero film again in Tollywood. In one of his recent interviews, Manchu Vishnu revealed that he is quite excited about his film with Hanuman as the story was never portrayed on Tollywood silver screen.
Going by Vishnu’s statement and the current buzz, the news seems to be true. In India, Hrithik’s Krrish is considered a real tribute to the superhero genre. In Tamil, Rangam fame Jiiva burnt his hands as he played a mask man in the film, Mask. In the past, stars like Amitabh Bachchan, Anil Kapoor, Dara Singh etc successfully performed indigenous superhero roles and it will be interesting to see our very own Manchu hero nailing it in his style.
Currently, the unit is busy with the film’s pre-production works. The film will be launched once Vishnu is free from the release of his home production, Dynamite. Regina Cassandra, who was branded as a Mega heroine thanks to her teaming up with Allu Arjun, Sirish and currently Varun Tej, will be playing Vishnu’s love interest in this film. Let’s wait for an official confirmation from the film’s unit.
