Harish Shankar
, who directed
Pawan Kalyan
in the super hit film
Gabbar Singh
with
Shruti Haasan
, was supposed to helm the star again in “
Katamarayudu
.” As he had committed with
Allu Arjun
in
Duvvada Jagannadham
, he could not spare the dates asked by Pawan and Sharrath Marrar, the producer. Initially, the project was launched with “S. J. Surya.” As the director committed doing a film with
Mahesh Babu
as the antagonist, he left the project. At once, Harish was approached and as he could not spare the dates, the team settled with Dolly aka Kishore Pardasani, who gave a hit
Gopala Gopala
. As Pawan’s latest film
Sardaar Gabbar Singh
with
Kajal Aggarwal
didn’t do well at the box office, he has pinned the hopes in Katamarayudu, the remake of Tamil movie “
Veeram
” by
Ajith Kumar
and
Tamannaah Bhatia
. Stay tuned to get more updates!
