Megastar Chiranjeevi is currently busy shooting for his 157th film, directed by Anil Ravipudi. The project, which is progressing at a rapid pace, features Nayanthara as the female lead and is shaping up to be a major entertainer. Known for his comedy blockbusters, Anil Ravipudi is reportedly moving faster than usual with this film’s production.
What makes this film even more exciting is the special appearance of Victory Venkatesh. While it was earlier said to be a cameo, reports now suggest his role will last almost an hour. At a recent event in the US, Venkatesh himself confirmed his involvement, hinting at a meaningful part. Given his long-standing friendship with Chiranjeevi and his past collaborations with director Anil Ravipudi, fans are thrilled about this unexpected team-up.
According to industry sources, both senior stars, Chiranjeevi and Venkatesh, will appear as undercover cops involved in a crime investigation in Mega 157. As part of the plot, Anil Ravipudi has planned a fun and entertaining comedy track between Chiranjeevi and Venkatesh, sure to keep audiences laughing. If true, it promises a festive treat for Telugu cinema lovers.
The film is being produced by Sahu Garapati and Sushmita Konidela, with music composed by Bheems Ceciroleo. With high expectations from fans and strong names on board, this film could be one of the biggest festive releases in recent years.
Mega 157 is scheduled to hit theatres during Sankranti 2026. With two fan favourites Chiranjeevi and Venkatesh donning police uniforms under a succesful comedy director Anil Ravipudi for Mega 157 delivering laughs, this could be a memorable celebration for Tollywood fans.
