Puri applies the principle in Mahesh Babu's case!

While Puri Jagannadh is not someone who waits until the hero he wants to work with gives the nod, did you expect that he would apply the same principle in the case of none other than Mahesh Babu? On the day 'Pokiri' completed its tenth year in April last, Puri proudly announced 'Jana Gana Mana' with Mahesh. But he waited and waited for months on end for Mahesh to respond on materializing the movie.
The wait proved rather endless. And Mahesh went ahead with Koratala Siva, Vamshi Paidipally and Trivikram Srinivas, as his New Year Eve tweet confirmed.
But Puri always knew which way the winds were blowing. So, he met Venkatesh, who in turn killed 'Adallu Meeku Joharlu' so that he could work with PJ.
It's said that the story that Puri has offered Venky is the same one which he offered Mahesh! In which case, Venky would be doing one more patriotic-social drama many years after 'Subhash Chandra Bose'.
