Renu Desai has been in the news for some or the other reason over the last few months. Currently, she is rumoured to be playing a key supporting role in 'Major', starring Adivi Sesh as Major Sandeep Unnikrishnan. Sections of media sensationalized it by claiming that the ex-wife of Pawan Kalyan is part of the Mahesh Babu production. 'Major', based on the 26/11 terrorist attacks in Mumbai, is produced by the 'Sarkaru Vaari Paata' actor.

Reacting to the rumour, the 'Badri' actress has made it clear that she is not doing the action thriller. Saying that she has been receiving congratulatory messages ever since the fake news went out, Renu added that she herself would have made it official had she signed on the dotted line.

During a LIVE chit-chat session with IndiaGlitz's patrons in April, Renu confessed that she is willing to play motherly roles in the movies of big stars like Mahesh Babu and Prabhas. When a follower asked her if she would like to start a TV show to inspire people with something constructive, Renu answered, "That's a good idea. Hitherto, I have been busy bringing up my children and directing a movie. If experience in life counts, I should do the talking."
