Actress Meenakshi Chaudhary, known for her performance in the Telugu hit ‘Lucky Bhaskhar’, is reportedly being considered for the female lead opposite Nani in director Sujeeth’s upcoming film ‘Bloody Romeo’.
According to industry sources, the makers have been in discussions with Meenakshi for the role. However, there has been no official confirmation from the filmmakers or the actress so far.
The film is being produced by Venkat Boyanapalli’s Niharika Entertainment in collaboration with Unanimous Productions. It marks Nani’s first collaboration with Sujeeth, who previously directed Pawan Kalyan in ‘They Call Him OG’.
The makers announced the title of ‘Bloody Romeo’ on Nani’s birthday earlier this year through a comic-noir title glimpse.
The promotional video used deep purple and blood-red tones and introduced Nani’s character in a kitchen. A voiceover by Vennela Kishore described qualities such as mercy, anger and brutality as ingredients, suggesting that the protagonist approaches his criminal life with the precision of a chef.
The glimpse ends with a pressure cooker exploding inside the “Gangster’s Den”, after which Nani’s character emerges from the rubble.
The presentation offered a glimpse of a protagonist portrayed as a witty and calculated figure rather than a conventional action hero.
