Though she had two back to back Hindi releases in the form of Humshakals and Entertainment, she hadn't signed any new Hindi film. Hence, one wondered about her career plans ahead. However, Tamannaah Bhatia continues to be one busy girl. She is back in South shooting for as many as three films, which are in different stages of production, hence ensuring that she would be pretty much occupied for next 10-12 months at the least. One is a Telugu film Aagadu where she is opposite none other than superstar Mahesh Babu. Even bigger is her bilingual film (in Tamil and Telugu) Baahubali which is pitched as the biggest and the costliest film to be coming out of South. It is directed by S.S. Rajamouli whose Vikramarkudu and Maryada Ramanna were remade as Rowdy Rathore and Son of Sardaar while another blockbuster Magadheera is set to be made in Hindi too.

Chennai, April 15: Director Koratala Siva, who is teaming up with superstar Mahesh Babu in a yet-untitled Telugu actioner, says the project will go on floors in July. The pre-production work is currently underway.

"The regular shooting will start from July onwards. By then, Mahesh is expected to complete shooting for 'Aagadu'," Koratala told Ians.

Mahesh is currently shooting for Sreenu Vaitla-directed "Aagadu".

"It's an out-and-out commercial project that's sure going to appeal to Mahesh's fans. Devi Sri Prasad has been roped in to compose the music, while the rest of the film's cast is yet to be finalized,".

Chennai, April 3: Superstar Mahesh Babu might croon a song in upcoming Telugu actioner "Aagadu", which has music by S.S Thaman. The makers feel Mahesh's voice will give the film much-needed hype.

Srinu Vaitla-directed "Aagadu" is currently on the floors and is produced by 14 Reels Entertainment.

"Thaman and Srinu Vaitla have requested Mahesh to sing a song. Mahesh is yet to confirm his participation," a film's spokesperson told Ians.

In the past, Mahesh had crooned in Thaman's music in "Businessman".

"The song that Mahesh had crooned in 'Businessman' was a chartbuster. It's because of that Thaman insisted.

Chennai, March 25: If all goes well, the first look of Mahesh Babu-starrer Telugu actioner "Aagadu" will be unveiled May 31, on the birthday of Mahesh Babu's father, superstar G. Krishna, says its director Sreenu Vaitla.

"We are planning to release the first look on Mahesh's father's birthday. If everything goes as planned, then we will release it on that day," Vaitla told Ians.

Last year, on the same day, the first teaser of Mahesh's Telugu psychological thriller "1: Nenokkadine" was released.

"Aagadu" will feature Mahesh in the role of a policeman for the third time in his career after "Pokkiri" and "Dookudu".

Chennai, Nov 18: Southern actress Tamannah Bhatia hasn't been signed for Gopichand-starrer yet untitled Telugu project, says her manager and adds that she only has Mahesh Babu's "Aagadu" in her kitty.

"She hasn't signed any Telugu project besides 'Aagadu' with Mahesh Babu. The film is her top most priority as she has set aside bulk dates for the same," Tamannah's manager told Ians.

Srinu Vaitla directed "Aagadu" went on floors recently and will be wrapped up by mid next year. The 23-year-old, who has paired with all top stars in Telugu, will be sharing screen space with Mahesh for the first time.

Tamannah, who.

Chennai, Oct 26: Superstar Mahesh Babu, who has spent over a year shooting for upcoming Telugu action-thriller "1: Nenokkadine", will start filming for his next project "Aagadu" from Nov 15 onwards.

"Aagadu", which will be directed by Srinu Vaitla, was launched Friday. This is the second time Vaitla and Mahesh are teaming up after Telugu blockbuster "Dookudu".

"I'm confident that 'Aagadu' will be a bigger hit than 'Dookudu'. We will start regular shooting from Nov 15 and wrap up the film by April 2014. This film will definitely be remembered for a long time in both of our careers," Srinu Vaitla told Ians.

Tamannah.

Chennai, Aug 28: Actress Shruti Haasan has reportedly been approached for the role which was originally offered to Tamannah Bhatia in upcoming Telugu action-drama "Aagadu" featuring Superstar Mahesh Babu, says a source from the industry.

"Shruti's name has come up for the lead role in 'Aagadu'. However, nothing has been confirmed yet as Srinu Vaitla (director) has to take the final call. We should have some clarity in a couple of weeks," a source close to the director told Ians.

Tamannah was finalised for the role a few months ago, but since Shruti is the most sought after actress in Telugu industry, she is being considered.

Chennai, June 25: Telugu director Vamsi Paidipally, who is gearing up for the release of Telugu action-drama "Yevadu", has expressed interest in working with superstar Mahesh Babu. However, he is not sure when such a project will materialise.

"I would love to work with Mahesh, but I'm not sure when will that happen. It might take time because he is already busy with two projects. I just want to focus on the release of 'Yevadu' for now and leave the rest for later," Vamsi told Ians.

Mahesh Babu is currently shooting in Europe for Telugu action "1: Nenokkadine", and he will soon team up with Srinu Vaitla for "Aagadu".
