Now that Ram Charan has been finalized for a key role in Chiranjeevi's Aacharya, the entire discussion is shifted to the character he is going to play. If our reports are to be believed, Ram Charan will be seen as a former Naxalite in the film. Both Chiru and Charan are Naxalites with different ideologies. But, Charan's character has to sacrifice his life for principles he believed in. His sacrifice inspires Chiranjeevi and the story takes a different turn from that point.

Both Charan and Chiranjeevi will share screen space in a song and few action episodes. The length of Charan's character is just 30 minutes and it will come in a flashback episode. To shoot 30 minutes of episodes, Mega Powerstar had to give 30 days of call sheets and he will earn 30 Cr remuneration.

With Kajal Aggarwal as a leading lady and music by Mani Sharma, the film is being directed by Koratala Siva. There is also a talk that Charan could have a lady alongside him and makers are in search of her.
