Chiranjeevi, on the other hand, is awaiting the release of his movie Acharya, while he is shooting for Godfather, Bhola Shankar, and another film.
Acharya, which marks the first-time collaboration between Ram Charan and his father Chiranjeevi in a full-length role, is slated to hit the big screens on February 4, 2022. Acharya also stars actors Pooja Hegde and Kajal Aggarwal in the lead. Helmed by director Koratala Siva, the project is produced by Niranjan Reddy of Matinee Entertainments and Konidela Production Company.

The production for Acharya commenced in 2020 but had to be halted in view of the pandemic. Shooting resumed in November 2020 and the film was predominantly shot in Hyderabad’s Ramoji Film City.
