Megastar Chiranjeevi is presently busy with Acharya. He plans to wrap up this Koratala Siva directorial by the end of August. Once Acharya is wrapped up, Chiranjeevi will start working on the Telugu remake of Lucifer. Mohan Raja is directing Lucifer remake and the pre-production works are being carried out at a brisk pace now. Interestingly, Chiranjeevi is also planning to shoot for Bobby’s project simultaneously. Bobby has locked the script already and he is raring to direct megastar in the film. Here is an interesting update on Chiranjeevi – Bobby project, which is set to leave Chiru’s fans excited.

Apparently, Chiranjeevi – Bobby project is the Telugu remake of Malayalam super hit Driving License. Bobby hinted about the same in his recent interaction with a media portal. “My film with Chiranjeevi is based on the feud between a top hero and his ardent fan,” he said. Well, this is the main plot of Driving License. The Malayalam film revolves around the unforeseen clash between a top actor and his ardent fan who works in the Road Transport Authority. The interesting clash between these two principal characters forms the main narrative of the film. Going by Bobby’s comment, his next project with Chiranjeevi will be a remake of Driving License.

It appears to be that Mythri Movie Makers had acquired the remake rights of Driving License and they are orchestrating the project with Chiranjeevi and Bobby now. Initially, it was heard that either Venkatesh or Ravi Teja would be working on the project but that isn’t to be. Chiranjeevi seems to have liked the story and subsequently taken up the project. Bobby is said to have locked the script already and the regular shoot might be commencing as early as this October, depending on the Covid situation at that point in time. Chiranjeevi will be shooting for Lucifer remake and Driving License remake simultaneously. He has already allotted dates for both these projects and will be taking them onto the floors in the next couple of months. Once he is done with these two projects, Chiranjeevi will start working on Vedhalam remake, which will be helmed by Meher Ramesh.

He is accused as the key conspirator in this shocking case.Shilpa Shetty remained silent all these days but she finally decided to share her statement on Instagram. She made her stand very clear and said that she would continue to refrain from talking as it is an ongoing investigation. As the statement reads, ‘Yes! The past few days have been challenging, on every front. There have been a lot of rumors and accusations. A lot of unwarranted aspersions on me cast by the media and (not so) well wishers as well. A lot of trolling/questions posed… not only to me but also to my family. MY STAND… I HAVE NOT COMMENTED YET and will continue to refrain from doing so on this case as it is subjudice, so please stop attributing false quotes on my behalf.’

She went onto add, ‘Reiterating my philosophy of, as a celebrity ‘Never complain, never explain’. All I will say is, as it’s an on-going investigation, I have full faith in the Mumbai Police & the Indian judiciary.’

Shilpa Shetty requested everyone as a mother to respect her family’s privacy. She told, ‘As a family, we are taking recourse to all our available legal remedies. But, till then I humbly request you – especially as a MOTHER – to respect our privacy for my children’s sake and request you to refrain from commenting on half-baked information without verifying the veracity of the same.’

She concluded her statement by saying, ‘I am a proud law-abiding Indian citizen and a hardworking professional for the last 29 years. People have put their faith in ME & I’ve never let anyone down. So, most importantly, I request you to respect my family’s and ‘my right’ to privacy in these times. We don’t deserve a media trial. Please let the law take its course. Satyamev Jayate! With Positivity and Gratitude, Shilpa Shetty Kundra.’

Many celebrities like Hansal Mehta and Richa Chadda have defended Shilpa Shetty. Acclaimed filmmaker Hansal Mehta said, ‘If you cannot stand up for her at least leave Shilpa Shetty alone and let the law decide? Allow her some dignity and privacy. It is unfortunate that people in public life ultimately are left to fend for themselves and are proclaimed guilty even before justice is meted out. This silence is a pattern. In good times everybody parties together. In bad times there is deafening silence. There is isolation. No matter what the ultimate truth the damage is already done.’
