The Scion Of Akkineni Family As A ‘Dalit Guy’

Akkineni Naga Chaitanya, the scion of Akkineni family, is currently working with Sekhar Kammula for an upcoming project Love Story that is progressing at a brisk pace.

For the first time in his career, he will be reportedly essaying the role of Dalit (low-caste guy) in his upcoming movie and it will create a sensation of sorts, as his role is very challenging and different from his previous projects.

"He is playing the role of the Dalit guy in the movie and it is a challenging and different role as the actor mostly essayed urban-centric roles," says a close source to the unit.

Director Sekhar Kammula has etched an exciting story around the conflict between lower and upper caste lovers and it will be an interesting and engrossing fare.

Interestingly, talented actress Sai Pallavi will be hailing from an affluent family, who falls in love with a guy for his honesty and innocence, the source said.

After essaying the role of a disgruntled cricketer in 'Majili' and an army officer in 'Venky Mama,' he is now returning in a new avatar.

The grandson of legendary ANR is donning the role of an underdog after flexing his muscles in movies like 'Shailaja Reddy.....' and 'Savyasaachi.'

The upcoming movie Love Story will be Sai Pallavi’s second movie with Sekhar Kammula. Narayan Das K Narang and Puskur Ram Mohan Rao are bankrolling the movie, under the banner of Asian Cinemas.
