Ram Charan and Sukumar
Ram Charan and director Sukumar’s much-anticipated collaboration is tentatively titled RC17. While Ram Charan is currently gearing up for his upcoming release Peddi, rumours suggested that the script for his film with Sukumar was not yet finalised. The speculation reportedly surfaced after chatter from members of the RC17 team. However, the makers have now clarified that there is no delay in the film.
According to a report by 123Telugu, Sukumar’s associate director Hussain Sha Kiran clarified that he had mistakenly mentioned two stories instead of two versions, which led to the confusion. Sukumar reportedly asks his writers to develop multiple versions of a script and then selects the best one. The story for his film with Ram Charan has already been locked.
