Dhoti or Pancha Kattu whatever you call. It is very popular in Telugu states and especially for the festivals. Balaiah has been very popular with this and especially for the Sankrathi releases.
Mahesh Babu’s lungi avatar in Srimanthudu was a huge hit and the theatres reverberated with the whistles and catcalls of the fans. In Pokiri too, he wore lungi for a song. Even that was a huge hit.
Now, director Koratala Siva is planning a song for Bharat Anu Nenu where Mahesh will be seen in white pancha. Since Mahesh is playing CM in the film, white pancha would look apt. The unit feels the idea will surely become a hit. Mahesh, however, is yet to give his nod.
With Mahesh movies doing not doing so well these days, now they want to depend on the old formula that is dhoti. YSRs dhoti looks as CM is also very popular. So as CM Mahesh want to do this for the next movie.
