For any film, there are certain slots in the casting segment which need to be filled with high caliber artistes and one such segment is the character artist. For a long time, the powerhouse performer Prakash Raj used to dominate and eventually it went to the super talented Rao Ramesh. Now, another name has come into strong reckoning.

It is that of Murli Sharma. Though Murali hails from Bollywood, he is originally a Telugu person settled in Mumbai. Now, there are reports that Murali has grabbed Prakash Raj’s role. Apparently, Prakash Raj did the role of Aluri Chakrapani in the blockbuster biopic ‘Mahanati’ and now Murli Sharma will be seen as Aluri Chakrapani.

This is in biopic of the great NTR which is being helmed by the intellectual filmmaker Krish. Having said that, there is also another interesting point, Prakash Raj is also part of the same project but this time he is essaying the role of the iconic Nagireddy. Let us wait to see how Murli Sharma delivers this one.
