The makers have made it official that 'Bharat Ane Nenu' will hit the screens on April 27. This is the same date on which 'Na Peru Surya' will release in a big way.

So, in a first, it will be a close competition between Mahesh Babu and Allu Arjun, both of whom command a very big market share. Both seem to throw up action in an equal proportion, while family sentiment is also a strength of them.

Incidentally, they both have the theme of patriotism as an undercurrent. Their very self-referential titles suggest that. While Koratala Shiva is said to be telling the story of an NRI who goes on to become a political heavyweight (the Chief Minister himself), debutante director Vakkantham Vamsi is said to be telling the brave tale of a soldier. Vakkantham is clashing with a three-time successful director and this is nothing less than a litmus test.

Whatever it is, the audience will be spoilt for choice, not knowing which one to watch first!
