Akhil to make a cameo in Manam?

Manam, starring ANR, Nagarjuna and Naga Chaitanya, has a new entrant from the Akkineni, if the latest buzz is anything to go by. Rumours are abuzz that Nagarjuna’s younger son, AkhilAkkhineni is going to make a cameo in the film. Before the film’s principal shooting began, when Nagarjuna was asked if Akhil was going to make a special appearance in the film, he vehemently denied the rumours. However, it looks like there was a change in the original plan.

Now, it might be a little too far-fetched to deduce that Akhil is going to make a cameo in Manam based on a tweet, but this is what Samantha said, “Today was a very special day on the sets of #Manam…u ll have to wait and watch….(Sic).” No wonder, fans of Nagarjuna and Naga Chaitanya are convinced that she is hinting at Akhil’s presence, although the actress did not reveal any details.

Manam also stars Shriya Saran and Samantha in lead roles. Vikram Kumar is directing the film and Nagarjuna is producing the film under Annapurna Studios banner. P S Vinod is the cinematographer and Anup Rubens is scoring the music. The film will hit the screens early next year.

Wonderful concept behind 'Manam'

Tollywood is bracing up to have a film which is going to create history. The film is ‘Manam’ and the record point is, this is the first Telugu film wherein three generations of actors from the same family are acting in it.  The Akkineni family comprising of ANR, Nagarjuna and Naga Chaitanya are the history makers.

While that is one side, here is another update. It is heard that the story of the film is loosely based on the Hollywood movie ‘Back To The Future’. Due to that, it would be seen as ANR is the son of Nagarjuna while Nagarjuna will be seen as the son of Naga Chaitanya. This technique is called non linear screenplay.

The film is directed by Vikram Kumar and the leading ladies are Samantha and Shriya. The shooting has already begun and if this news is true then it is going to create a new revolution in Telugu cinema. While some are confirming this news is true we will know the truth only when the film releases.
