Speculation about Allu Arjun’s next film with Malayalam filmmaker Basil Joseph has gained fresh momentum after the director dropped a subtle hint on social media. Basil recently shared a picture with the word “Icon”, a clear reference to Allu Arjun’s popular title, triggering discussions that the project has finally been locked. Though neither Allu Arjun nor the production house has made an official announcement, industry circles believe the collaboration is moving ahead on a positive note.
The discussion around this project has been going on for months. Reports about Basil directing Allu Arjun first surfaced earlier this year, but both sides maintained silence. Basil later clarified that the film had no connection with the long-rumoured Shaktimaan project. His latest social media post has now reignited the buzz, with many fans treating it as an unofficial confirmation that the collaboration is finally taking shape. Allu Arjun’s home banner Geetha Arts is expected to bankroll this expensive film.
Allu Arjun is currently occupied with Raaka, directed by Atlee. He also has a film with Lokesh Kanagaraj in his lineup. If Basil Joseph film materialises, it is expected to go on floors only after Allu Arjun completes his existing commitments. Basil Joseph has emerged as one of the most exciting filmmakers from Malayalam cinema after Minnal Murali. Basil is also busy as an actor and he is occupied with several acting assignments. He is balancing his career as an actor and a director.
