Rana To Become The Antagonist In Nani’s Next?

Natural Star Nani is currently a busy man in the Telugu film industry, juggling multiple projects in various stages of development and production.

Nani’s upcoming film “Saripodhaa Sanivaaram” is nearing completion and is set for a theatrical release on August 29th, 2024. Directed by Vivek Athreya, the film has generated excitement among fans with its intriguing title and first glimpse video.

Beyond “Saripodhaa Sanivaaram,” Nani has several other projects lined up. He recently announced a collaboration with director Srikanth Odela, known for his work on “Dasara.” While filming is expected to commence later this year, details about the project remain under wraps.

Another project in the pipeline is a film with director Sujeeth, following Sujeeth’s successful “OG.” The official announcement for this project was made on Nani’s birthday in February 2024.

Adding to the excitement is the confirmation of “HIT 3.” Previously, Nani produced the first two installments of the “HIT” franchise, starring Vishwak Sen and Adivi Sesh. In a noteworthy shift, Nani will not only produce “HIT 3” but will also take on the lead role.

“HIT 3” will mark the return of director Sailesh Kolanu, whose previous film “Saindhav” underperformed at the box office. Reports suggest that Kolanu has a strong script for “HIT 3” and is aiming for a successful comeback.

Furthermore, rumors suggest that Rana Daggubati is in talks to play the antagonist in “HIT 3.” Rana Daggubati, known for his diverse filmography, is often open to playing villainous roles and making special appearances. His potential involvement has generated significant buzz for the film.

Nani and Rana Daggubati reportedly share a good friendship, having co-hosted an award function together in the past. The possibility of them sharing screen space and engaging in an on-screen rivalry as protagonist and antagonist has fans eagerly awaiting official confirmation.

Reports also hint at Rana Daggubati potentially portraying a psycho killer in “HIT 3,” which is said to be an investigative thriller. While casting details remain unconfirmed, the prospect of this combination adds another layer of intrigue to the highly anticipated project.
