'Rythu', a Telugu drama about farmers grievances will see Amitabh Bachchan in a major role in the film. Filmmaker Krishna Vamsi through this film plans to bring together Big B and Nandamuri Balakrishna to share screen space.
A source close to Vamsi revealed to a leading tabloid, "Both Krishna Vamsi and Balakrishna had met Amitji on the sets of Sarkar 3 not very long ago. They pitched the story to him and even discussed the idea of collaborating as they're very keen on having him on board, even if it means waiting for another six months."
While Big B likes the script, he is yet to give a nod to this project. To this, the source added, "Apparently, he's busy till June 2017, and it's only after he is relieved of his current commitments can he think of taking up this offer." Both, Krishna and Balakrishna are ready to wait until Big B completes his pending work. The source further said, "Balakrishna Sir has decided to postpone the film's shoot and commence the project from second half of next year. The project will roll with Balakrishna from July 2017, and if Amitji comes on board, he will join the team a month later."
