Spotlight: Chiranjeevi's Doubts are Clarified

Multi-star films are common in Bollywood but far from reality in today's Tollywood. Although there were such films in later 70s, the trend of single hero worship in single film has come inti existence. When asked about the same, Chiranjeevi once said that multi star films will be very expensive to make. When asked Chiranjeevi about his combination with Pawan Kalyan, he said that Pawan is also a star and he has to paid up to his level and the budget grows up heavily. So, Chiranjeevi also isn't open to multi star film without good money returns. Now that combination is worked out in 'Shankardada Zindabad'. Official figures are not out about the remuneration given to Pawan Kalyan for this film, but sources say that it ran very big. Well, Pawan played only a guest role in the film.

Multi star trend has started with the films like 'Lakshyam' in which Gopichand and Jagapathi Babu worked together. Same is the case with 'Toss' where Raja and Upendra joined together.
Till some time back, the egos of heroes kept them away from multi star films. But now, openly, Chiru and Nag are friends. Both of them acted in the film 'Style' in guest fights. Venkatesh has come for the audio function of Shankardada Zindabad. The friendship between Chiru and Venky is also growing big. It's only the turn of Balakrishna and Chiranjeevi to come together.
At present 'Shankardada Zindabad' proves to be the big multi-star film as it has Chiranjeevi, Pawan Kalyan, Srikanth, Allu Arjun and Ravi Teja. Well, it is not first time for Ravi Teja to act with Chiranjeevi. He already acted in the film 'Annayya' as one of the brothers to Chiranjeevi.
