Allu Arjun took his own sweet time to finalise his films after Naa Illu India failed to perform well at the box office India. There were rumours doing the rounds that he was in talks with ace filmmaker Vikram Kumar, who has films like 24, Hello, Ishq and Manam to his credit. However, the project did not come into effect for reasons best known to the filmmakers.

Apart from Icon, Allu Arjun has several films in his kitty including ace filmmakers Trivikram Srinivas and Sukumar. If anything to go by reports, he will begin shooting for his untitled film with Trivikram. The forthcoming film will be the actor-director duo’s third collaboration after hits like Julai (2012) and S/O Satyamurthy (2015).

After finishing Trivikram’s film, Allu Arjun is likely to join the sets of director Sukumar’s film in the second half of 2019.

Interestingly, Sukumar’s directorial debut Arya (2004), which was also written by him, gave the first solo break to Allu Arjun. Five years later, he did a sequel to the film, Arya 2, with Allu Arjun again, which turned out to be a blockbuster film.
