After Uppena Buchi Babu the director could not get any assignment. He was after Junior NTR for a movie with a sports theme.
NTR encouraged the director in the beginning, but later he did not bother about the said movie.
Buchi Babu is relatively free and was trying to hook one here or the other. But nothing is happening. Now he is back with his guru Sukumar the ace director of Pushpa.
Buchi Babu is working on the rehash of the story for Pushpa two so that it appeals to the Pan India audience.
The success of Pushpa: The Rise across India has led the team to believe that the script requires multiple changes, and as a result, director Sukumar has been busy rewriting the story for Pushpa 2.
The huge success of other south Indian movies like RRR and KGF 2 and Vikram is said to be pressuring the director to include more mass elements that will appeal to both South and North audiences in a big way.
So far the makers of this upcoming rural drama have not provided any updates on the shooting schedules or other pre-production work. Meanwhile, Icon star Allu Arjun is keeping himself busy with the Ad shoots.
