The character’s obsession with his father in the film knows no boundaries.

In the same interview, Allu also expressed his desire to work with Ranbir while praising him as ‘one of the finest actors in Bollywood’. “He’s just wow. He’s also my personal favourite. I like him a lot, he’s very good.” During the interview, Balakrishna said that he would write a story and if needed direct a movie featuring Ranbir and Allu together after the latter found the idea, “fabulous.” Allu added that his father Allu Aravind will produce it.

Meanwhile, Allu is awaiting the release of his upcoming action drama, Pushpa 2: The Rule.
