Scoop: Is Alia Bhatt Doing Another Telugu Film?

After her  glorified  cameo in S S Rajamouli’s RRR Alia Bhatt seems to have fallen in love with Telugu cinema.The  buzz in Hyderabad—and a  very strong one  at that—is that  Alia Bhatt has signed  another  Telugu  film, this time again opposite her  RRR co-star NTR Jr.

The untitled film that goes on  the floors in  February is  to  be directed by the hitmaker Koratala Siva  who earlier directed NTR Jr in the 2016 blockbuster  Janatha Garage. This is  his second collaboration with  NTR Jr.

A  well-placed source  from Hyderabad  informs me, “NTR Jr and Alia Bhatt  have become  friends during RRR. He persuaded  her to do the  film to be directed  by  Koratala Siva who’s a friend of  NTR Jr.”

Hopefully Ms Bhatt  will have more  to do this time than she  does in RRR. Incidentally she  is paired with  Ramcharan Teja   RRR    and not NTR Jr
