Akkineni Nagarjuna is currently shooting for his next film which is being directed by Praveen Sattaru. Touted to be an action thriller, this film is currently in the midway of its shoot. After wrapping up this project, Nag will start shooting for his next film Bangarraju. Directed by Kalyana Krishna, Bangarraju will be a spin-off of the 2016 hit flick Soggade Chinni Nayana.

Along with Nagarjuna, Ramya Krishna will also reprise her role from the original. The latest reports reveal that Bollywood actress Sonakshi Sinha will play a key role in the movie. Apparently, the director gave a narration to Sonakshi and the latter was impressed by it. An official announcement is expected to be made once the Dabangg actress signs the dotted lines.

It is being heard that the shoot of Bangarraju will go on the floors by the end of June. Sonakshi has earlier acted in the Tamil film Lingaa. If she comes on board, Bangarraju will be her second film down the south.
