Ram Charan and Janhvi Kapoor in Buchi Babu's upcoming film?

Since there are credible rumours that the Mili actress will star opposite Ram Charan in Buchi Babu's upcoming film, and the producers have even contacted the actress for the role, Janhvi Kapoor has been making news. By focusing on one film at a time, Janhvi has been steadily carving out a place for herself in the industry and has been praised for her remarkable performances.

Fans of Ram Charan severely disagree with Jahnvi Kapoor's pick to appear opposite him.

Fans of Ram Charan have been vocally against Janhvi Kapoor being in the RRR actor's movie, arguing that she won't be a good fit for him and that the directors should instead choose a South Indian woman to play his opposite. While there is no official confirmation of Janhvi doing the movie, these are simply rumours.

The protagonist role in Mahesh Babu's SSMB29, directed by SS Rajamouli, will be played by Alia Bhatt.

Prior to Janhvi, Alia Bhatt also received harsh criticism when it was revealed that she will be appearing in SS Rajamouli and Mahesh Babu's film. Many warned the director that they would boycott the movie in theatres if Alia was cast in it. Now, Pooja Hegde will be playing the female lead.
