Chiranjeevi's upcoming films
Chiranjeevi is preparing for the release of his upcoming film, Vishwambhara. Directed by Mallidi Vasishta, this epic fantasy drama marks Vasishta's second directorial effort. His previous work, Bimbisara, a fantasy film featuring Nandamuri Kalyan Ram, garnered both critical and commercial success.
The film initially faced some controversy when Vyjayanthi Movies stated that no material from Jagadeka Veerudu Athiloka Sundari could be used. However, Vasishta had clarified that Vishwambhara is entirely original and unrelated to the mentioned film. The movie is set to release during the Sankranti festival in 2025.
