Is Allu Arjun to debut with ‘Kabali’ producer Kalaippuli Thanu in a Tamil-Telugu movie?

Allu Arjun is apparently going to join hands with ‘Kabali’ producer Thanu for a bilingual movie in Tamil and Telugu.

Allu Arjun is one of the South stars who have an enormous fanbase all over South India, and even in the North. It was noted that he was going to make his debut in Tamil cinema, but that did not materialise. After a big launch ceremony in Chennai, the movie got shelved. Now, Gulte.com has reported that he is planning a movie with the producer of Asuran, Kalaipuli S Thanu. It appears that a Tamil filmmaker will be helming the film. The producer Thanu has confirmed, that he is doing a bilingual film with Allu Arjun. There is a strong buzz on social media that AR Murugadoss might direct the film. However, nothing is officially announced yet.

Producer Thanu and Allu Arjun’s dad Allu Aravind share a close bond. The former helped out the producer a couple of times in the past. He assisted him to finalise distributors for his Tamil film, Maapillai that had Rajinikanth in the key role. When Allu Aravind had to release Magadheera in Tamil, Thanu lent him immense support.
