**BREAKING NEWS FROM LAGER CINEMA: ALLU ARJUN AND TRIVIKRAM SRINIVAS TO COLLABORATE ON A MONUMENTAL RS 1000 CRORE MYTHOLOGICAL EPIC – BUT HERE’S THE JAW-DROPPING TWIST!**
Tollywood is abuzz with what could be the most audacious and talked-about collaboration in recent memory! LagerCinema has learned through an exclusive industry insight that the formidable duo of Stylish Star Allu Arjun and the acclaimed "Wizard of Words" Trivikram Srinivas are set to reunite for their fourth project, a mythological epic of unprecedented scale. What’s truly making waves is the astronomical budget of over Rs 1000 crore and the whispers that this very script was once earmarked for Young Tiger Jr. NTR!
This comes at a time when the Telugu box office is still reeling from the Sankranti 2026 clashes, where Megastar Chiranjeevi's "Mana Shankara Varaprasad Garu" emerged as the undisputed champion, set to become a regional industry hit, while Prabhas's "The Raja Saab" sadly faltered, being declared the first major flop of the year. Against this backdrop of fluctuating fortunes, the announcement of an Allu Arjun-Trivikram mythological film on such a grand canvas is nothing short of explosive.
Sources close to the development reveal that this ambitious project, described as a "mythological epic," will be mounted on a "never-before-seen scale" and is designed to redefine the genre for a pan-Indian and even global audience. The film is slated to go on floors in February 2027, promising a visual spectacle blended with Trivikram's signature powerful storytelling and dialogues. Allu Arjun is expected to wrap up his current commitments, including Atlee's big-budget pan-India film with Deepika Padukone (tentatively titled AA22xA6), before diving into this magnum opus.
But the most sensational aspect of this exclusive news is the intricate history of the script. Industry insiders are buzzing with the revelation that this "strong story," now in Allu Arjun's hands, was "originally written for Allu Arjun" but then "initially planned for Jr. NTR" before "the project appears to have come full circle" back to Allu Arjun! This surprising turn of events is bound to spark heated discussions among fans and within the film fraternity. Given the previous buzz about Trivikram writing a script for NTR, this development adds a spicy layer of speculation about what transpired behind the scenes.
The Allu Arjun-Trivikram combination has consistently delivered blockbusters like "Julayi," "S/O Satyamurthy," and "Ala Vaikunthapurramuloo," making this fourth collaboration one of the most awaited projects. The anticipation for their reunion, especially on a Rs 1000 crore mythological scale, is already reaching fever pitch. Fans are eagerly awaiting the official announcement, which is expected in the next few weeks.
Meanwhile, Trivikram Srinivas is also busy directing Venkatesh Daggubati in "Aadarsha Kutumbam – House No: 47," aiming for a Summer 2026 release. This clearly shows the director is in high demand, juggling multiple high-profile projects.
With such a colossal project on the horizon, Tollywood is poised for another monumental shift. The Allu Arjun-Trivikram epic, with its massive budget and intriguing backstory, is undoubtedly the hottest news in Telugu cinema right now, promising an unforgettable cinematic experience and endless gossip!
