The makers of Superstar Mahesh Babu’s upcoming film, Sarkaru Vaari Paata, haven’t been able to lock the antagonist of the film till now. Initially, there were reports that the makers were planning to rope in Bollywood actor Anil Kapoor, followed by reports of Upendra being approached, and then, there were reports that Arjun Sarja would be playing the antagonist.
It was also said that Arjun was even locked for the part, but now, new reports are surfacing, with speculations going on about the makers having approached Tamil actor Samuthirakani for the role of antagonist in the film. Samuthirakani was last seen in Krack, in which he played the villain, and was highly commended for his performance.
Samuthirakani was also seen in Allu Arjun’s Ala Vaikuntapuramlo, and is also going to be seen in Rajamouli’s RRR. It is now to be seen if Samuthirakani being cast as the lead antagonist in Mahesh’s SVP turns out to be real, or if Arjun will be finalised. All in all, it is going to be interesting to see who Mahesh will go up against, in SVP. Sarkaru Vaari Pata is being directed by Parasuram of Geetha Govindam fame, while Keerthy Suresh is the heroine, and Thaman is the music director.
