Nayanthara has wrapped up her portion in Chiranjeevi’s upcoming Telugu political drama Godfather. The film’s director Mohan Raja took to Twitter to express his joy over working with the actress for the third consecutive time. 

In Godfather, a remake of the Malayalam blockbuster Lucifer (2019), Nayanthara will be seen playing Manju Warrier’s role from the original film. 

Nayanthara joined the sets in September 2021. She’s paired with Satyadev in the movie. 

Mohan Raja tweeted: “Finished a major schedule today with the lady superstar Nayanthara for our Godfather. It’s nothing less than sheer joy n satisfaction working with her for the consecutive third time (sic).” 

Along with the tweet, Mohan also shared a picture with the actress from the sets. 

Mohan Raja has returned to Telugu cinema with Godfather after a decade. The film is rumoured to feature Salman Khan in a cameo appearance. 

Meanwhile, Nayanthara is looking forward to the release of her upcoming Tamil romantic comedy Kaathu Vaakula Rendu Kaadhal, which has been directed by her boyfriend Vignesh Shivn. 

Kaathu Vaakula Rendu Kaadhal is a light-hearted comedy about a love triangle featuring Vijay Sethupathi, Nayanthara and Samantha. 

In the film, Vijay and Samantha play characters named Rambo and Khatija, respectively while Nayanthara plays a woman called Kanmani. 

The project marks the maiden collaboration of Vijay Sethupathi and Samantha as a pair. Even though both of them were part of the critically-acclaimed Tamil film Super Deluxe (2019), they didn’t have any scenes together. 

Chiranjeevi, meanwhile, awaits the release of upcoming Telugu film, Acharya. The film also stars Ram Charan in a key role.
