Yes, that’s right! the movie director first narrated the script to Allu Aravind. Post which they approached Allu Arjun. Bunny had liked the script but decided against doing it. The reason being his mass image after starring in the action-packed film Sarrainodu. He thought his fans will not accept him in the romantic comedy-drama. So Bunny lost his chance of featuring in the movie.
The film was given to Arjun Reddy actor Vijay Deverakonda. Geetha Govindam went on to become a commercial success and the audience fell in love with Vijay Deverakonda and Rashmika Mandanna’s chemistry.
On the work front, Allu Arjun after the super success of Ala Vaikunthapuramloo will be next seen in Pushpa. The movie is being co-produced by Y. Naveen and directed by Sukumar. It also features Rashmika Mandanna, Jagapati Babu, and Prakash Raj in the lead roles.
