Allu Arjun and Lokesh Kanagaraj’s Film Still On, Rumours Denied

Allu Arjun, currently immersed in the shoot of Raaka, has found himself at the centre of speculation regarding his next major project, AA23, with acclaimed Tamil director Lokesh Kanagaraj. Recent chatter on social media suggested that the collaboration between the star and the director had been called off, leading to confusion among fans.

However, according to the latest updates, there is no truth to these rumours. The project, which marks Allu Arjun’s 23rd film, remains firmly on track. Pre-production activities are underway, albeit quietly, as the team prepares to begin filming once Allu Arjun completes his work on Raaka. Lokesh Kanagaraj, known for his successful run in Kollywood, is set to direct, while Mythri Movie Makers is backing the venture.

The anticipation around AA23 heightened after music composer Anirudh Ravichander’s theme for the film gained widespread attention. The theme even caught the eye of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, who featured it in one of his Instagram posts, further boosting the film’s profile.

Earlier this year, Allu Arjun officially announced his collaboration with Lokesh Kanagaraj, confirming that the script was in development. Despite the persistent rumours, there has been no official word from the makers about any changes to the project’s status. The team is expected to share more details as the film moves closer to production.

For now, fans can rest assured that Allu Arjun’s next big collaboration with Lokesh Kanagaraj is progressing as planned, with Mythri Movie Makers at the helm and Anirudh Ravichander on board for the music.
