The shooting of Chiranjeevi's `Godfather' is going on at a brisk pace. Directed by Mohan Raja, the film is produced by Konidela Productions and Super Good Films.
It is the 153rd film of `megastar' Chiranjeevi. Yesterday, the makers announced that the first schedule of the film in Hyderabad has been wrapped up. The shooting for the second schedule will start soon.
`Lady Superstar' Nayanthara also shot her sequences in the first schedule The team has shared a picture of Nayanthara alongside director Mohan Raja.
Chiranjeevi will be seen in a powerful role in the movie. It is tipped to be a high intense political action drama. Nayanthara is playing a significant role in the movie.
The top-notch technical team is handling different aspects of the movie. Master cinematographer Nirav Shah handles the camera, while SS Thaman will compose music. Suresh Selvarajan - the art director for many Bollywood Blockbusters - takes care of the artwork of this film. The film is produced jointly by RB Choudary and NV Prasad. Konidela Surekha is presenting the movie.
Godfather is the remake of the Malayalam blockbuster film `Lucifer'. Lucifer was directed by Prithviraj Sukumaran and has Mohanlal in the lead. Manju Warrier and Tovino Thomas play key roles in the film and we wonder if Nayanthara and Satyadev are stepping into the same shoes. Expectations on this film are huge as it is a political thriller. It has been a long time since fans saw Chiranjeevi in such a role.
Meanwhile, he is waiting for the release of his next film `Acharya' which will release on April 29. Directed by Koratala Siva, the film has Ram Charan Tej, Kajal Aggarwal, and Pooja Hegde in lead roles. The makers are busy with post-production.
