After two back to back superhit like Arjun Reddy and Geetha Govindham, Vijay Devarakonda attempted a political drama NOTA. But, the bilingual film directed by Anand Shankar ended up as a big disaster at box-office.
Anand, who started off his career as an assistant to AR Murugadoss, has debuted with a super hit 'Arima Nambi' in 2014. But, he failed to capitalise on that success as his following projects: Vikram's Iru Mugan (Inkokkadu in Telugu) and NOTA were big disasters.
Though Anand was reeling under flops, he has managed to get two big actors for his next multi-starrer project. According to his Twitter post, Anand Shankar is all set to make his fourth film with Vishal and Arya, who collaborated in the past for Avan-Ivan (Vaadu-Veedu in Telugu). While Vishal will be playing a protagonist character, Arya will be reportedly seen in a grey role. Mrunalini Ravi, who featured as a village girl in Gaddalakonda Ganesh, is confirmed as lead actress in this big budget movie. Producer Vinod Kumar will officially announce the news shortly. It remains to be seen if Anand strikes back with this multi-starrer.
