List of movies rejected by Tamannaah

Akhanda

Tamannaah was one of the initial choices for Boyapati and Balakrishna’s Akhanda, 

but the actress passed on the offer, after which Pragya Jaiswal was brought on board.

Venkatesh-Teja film

A film between director Teja and Venkatesh was announced quite some time ago, but the film is yet to materialise.

Tamannaah was offered to play the leading lady initially, but she passed on the offer.

Vijay-Murugadoss film

Director Murugadoss has made 3 successful films with Vijay, and the fourth one in their combination was announced. 

This was tentatively titled as Thuppakki 2 as well, and Tamannaah was approached as the leading lady.

 While the actress passed on the offer, the film has been put on hold due to unknown reasons, for now.

Khiladi

It is known that Ravi Teja’s upcoming film is Khiladi, directed by Ramesh Varma. 

Tamannaah was initially approached for the part of the leading lady, but she is learned to have said no due to unknown reasons.

Savyasachi

Naga Chaitanya and director Chandoo Mondeti came together for a unique concept, Savyasachi.

While the film didn’t turn out to be as successful as everyone expected it to turn out, the director and the actor were lauded for their efforts. 

Tamannaah was approached to play the part of the leading lady of the film initially, but she is said to have rejected the offer, after which Nidhi Aggarwal was brought on board.

Raju Gari Gadhi 3

The first two films of the Raju Gari Gadhi franchise turned out to be really good hits, but the same cannot be said of the third film, which tanked at the box office.

Thankfully for Tamannaah, she passed on the opportunity.

Nee Jathaga Nenundali

When Aashiqui 2 was first released, it was the most talked-about film across the country.

Naturally, the remake rights of the film were bought so that it could be made in Telugu.

Tamannaah, who was first given the opportunity to play the leading lady in the film, she passed on, and it turned out to be a good decision on her part.

Shivam

Tamannaah shared screenspace with Ram Pothineni in Endukante Premanta but passed on the opportunity a second time when she was approached for Shivam. The role was eventually played by Raashi Khanna.

Speedunnodu

Tamannaah was seen in a special song in Bellamkonda Srinivas’s debut film, Allu Seenu, but passed on the opportunity to play the female lead in his film Speedunnodu.

Spyder

Tamannaah once again passed on the opportunity to work with director AR Murugadoss, and to work a second time with Superstar Mahesh Babu,

when she said no to Spyder. The role eventually went to Rakul Preet Singh.
