As a combination they have very many things in common.

Both of them are considered hugely talented by the discerning.

Both of them have a brother who is also in the industry.

Both of them are enduring what is perhaps the worst patch in their career.

But one of them is an actor and the other a director-producer.

We are talking about Pawan Kalyan and Poori Jagan.

The duo, it is said, are planning a movie together.

And with a good reason. The last time they worked together what ensued was pure cinematic magic in the form of Badri.

The film was such a hit that launched both Pawan and Poori on a higher trajectory in their career. After they went their separate ways.

Now life has come a full circle with both of them shell-shocked with a series of failures. Of course, the two will come together after they complete their current projects. That may take some time.

But the wait may be worth it.
