Shyamala Devi, wife of legendary Telugu film star Krishnam Raju, made a significant announcement today during the 127th birth anniversary celebrations of Telugu freedom fighter Alluri Seetharamaraju. Speaking to the media at the event, she revealed her aspiration to produce a film based on Alluri Seetharamaraju's life, starring Prabhas in the titular role.
Shyamala Devi expressed her belief that Prabhas would bring Alluri Seetharamaraju's character to life on screen and acknowledged the desires of many fans who wish to see Prabhas in this iconic role. She pledged to convey these sentiments to Prabhas and strive to materialize the project.
Reflecting on her late husband Krishnam Raju's efforts, she mentioned his advocacy for a statue of Alluri Seetharamaraju in the Indian Parliament 15 years ago. Despite his efforts then being unfulfilled, she now plans to approach the President and Prime Minister of India for reconsideration.
While Prabhas is currently committed to several highly anticipated projects such as "Raja Saab," "Salasar 2," and "Spirit" over the next few years, the decision on whether he will take on the role of Alluri Seetharamaraju in the future remains to be seen.
The prospect of Prabhas portraying Alluri Seetharamaraju is undoubtedly exciting for his fans, and Shyamala Devi's initiative has sparked anticipation within the industry and among moviegoers alike.
