Tollywood star Chiranjeevi who will soon be making his comeback has been hunting for a good script since quite some time now. And it looks like the actor has finally narrowed down this choice as the Telugu remake of Tamil blockbuster ‘Kaththi’. Chiranjeevi has apparently agreed to nod a yes, after making certain changes to the film’s script to make it ready for his Telugu audience as his 150th film.
‘Kaththi’ directed by A.R. Murugadoss originally starred superstar Vijay, Samantha Prabhu and Bollywood star Neil Nitin Mukesh. Apparently the Telugu version of the film was initially offered to NTR Jr. and Pawan Kalyan. “Chiranjeevi has given his in-principle nod but is yet to sign the project. He’s waiting for some changes to be made to the script to suit the Telugu sensibilities,” a source close to the actor revealed.
