Director Radha Krishna, who has directed Jil and Radhe Shyam, among other movies, seems to be planning a return. Having kept a low profile after Radhe Shyam, the director is said to be working on his next romantic drama with actor Varun Tej.
Earlier, there were rumors that Radha Krishna would team up with Gopichand, but the project failed to take shape as the actor was busy with other commitments. Now, latest reports indicate that Radha Krishna has narrated a classic love story to Varun Tej, who apparently appreciated the script. The project is reportedly almost locked in and official word about the production house and release timeline is expected shortly.
Varun Tej is currently engaged with the shooting of Korean Kanakaraju, directed by Merlapaka Gandhi. Shooting for the project is on at Hyderabad, where a special song is being cantered. The moment this movie finishes, the project of Radha Krishna may lift off.
Varun Tej, who has been going all out for high-octane action of late, is said to be interested in revisiting the romantic genre. Radha Krishna’s emotionally charged storytelling might just provide the perfect platform. While Radhe Shyam fell short commercially, it was praised for its visual splendor and emotional depth—two aspects that suggest Radha Krishna’s ability to write love stories.
Since both the actor and director want to do something new, this possible collaboration would create curiosity among Telugu film fans. Everyone’s waiting for the official word now, which should be announced shortly.
