The only name you can think of when you hear the title Mahanati is that of the legendary actress Savitri. Currently, a biopic is on the floors and the cutie pie Keerthy Suresh is doing the title role. Nag Ashwin is helming this project and he is doing his best.
Meanwhile, speculations are on that young tiger Junior NTR was approached to reprise the role of the great N T Rama Rao and he said no. Those who heard this are saying it is a right decision. They add that he needs to say no because his image is very big.
The general suggestion is that maybe some other actor who can show those mannerisms would do and since it is said to be just two to three scenes, showing the character from rear also would give that impact because of the glory N T Rama Rao has. Let us see who would be the chosen one then.
