Salman Khan to headline
According to latest reports from tinsel town, Vamsi Paidipally is all set to direct superstar Salman Khan. The filmmaker has been working on a script that suits the superstar’s stardom and image. Apparently, Vamsi wrote the script keeping Salman in mind. He had narrated the plotline to the actor who then asked the director to develop the idea into a full-bound script. It looks like Salman approved the story and that’s when Vamsi started working on it. The director was spotted making multiple visits meeting Salman in Mumbai in recent times. And those in the know, have revealed that star producer Dil Raju is backing the project. Recently, his co-producer Shirish too confirmed the development of Salman’s film. But he hasn’t revealed whether the story is a remake or an original script. Fans are excited to learn about this development, more so, because of the director’s strength to showcase his protagonists in a new avatar.
Vamsi-Dil Raju collaborative strength
So far, Vamsi has directed six films – Munna, Yevadu, Brindavanam, Oopiri, Maharshi and Varisu. Except Oopiri, all the remaining films were bankrolled by Dil Raju – an indication of their collaborative strength. Vamsi has the reputation of a director who likes to experiment with stories. His last film, Varisu, starring superstar Vijay, was critically acclaimed for showcasing Vijay in a new angle. Sources from Tinseltown indicate that if all goes well, the makers are planning to take Salman’s film on floors with a grand launch early next year. The pre-production work is presently in full swing, and the director is giving final touches to the story.
