Pawan Kalyan is all set to appear in theaters with Ustaad Bhagat Singh, releasing on March 19, 2026. Now, as per reports, the Power Star may collaborate with director Mohan Raja for an upcoming film.
Pawan Kalyan to next work with director Mohan Raja?
According to a report by 123Telugu, Chiranjeevi’s Godfather director Mohan Raja has narrated a script to Pawan Kalyan. The actor and director are reportedly in discussions about the project, with TG Vishwa Prasad’s People Media Factory expected to bankroll it. However, this remains unconfirmed, as no official announcement has been made.
