BIG! ‘Vikram’ director Lokesh to work with Ram Charan

Kollywood director Lokesh Kanagaraj has acquired stardom after the stupendous success of ‘Vikram’, which has grossed Rs 300 Cr worldwide. The buzz is that the talented filmmaker is going to make a massive Tollywood debut with a Ram Charan movie. It will likely be a pan-India flick. 

It’s learned that the ‘Master’ and ‘Kaithi’ director recently called on the ‘RRR’ actor at the latter’s residence in Hyderabad. Dashing music director Anirudh Ravichander was also present at the time of the meet. “The meeting happened when Lokesh was in Hyderabad to attend the pre-release event of ‘Vikram’. It went really well,” a source says. 

Lokesh is scheduled to make a film with Thalapathy Vijay next. It will be a mega project in which the ‘Beast’ actor will reportedly play a gangster. 

Ram Charan is also slated to do a film with ‘Jersey’ director Gowtam Tinnanuri after the Shankar directorial. 

Meanwhile, ‘RRR’ continues to fetch him accolades from all corners. The worldwide streaming has made Charan and the Rajamouli directorial familiar to the Western cine media. ‘RRR’, which was released in theatres on March 25, has since been garnering high praises.
