Two months ago a certain annoucement created a flurry of excitement among fans - Producer Subbarami Reddy had declared that Pawan Kalyan and Chiranjeevi were teaming up together for a project directed by Trivikram. The fact two superstars who also happened to be brothers were coming together was a dream come true for fans. But the news died down just as quickly. There were no further updates regarding the annoucement so much so, it was starting to be considered a rumour but just yesterday Subbarami squashed all rumours and confirmed the news. "I am very happy to share that the mega hit combination will soon be hitting floors. Both Chiranjeevi garu and Pawan Kalyan Garu are now busy with their commitments. Once they finish off, I will be launching the film on a grand scale.
