Hyderabad: Following the phenomenal success of ‘RRR,’ Ram Charan, who has begun promoting his upcoming release ‘Acharya,’ revealed intriguing details about Koratala Siva’s directorial.

In the same interview, Ram Charan and director Koratala Siva expressed concerns about arranging Charan’s dates for ‘Acharya.’

“It’s difficult to get the hero’s dates when working with a huge director like Rajamouli,” Koratala Siva explained.

“When Koratala sir approached me for the dates to shoot for Acharya, we were both terrified of approaching Rajamouli,” Ram Charan explained.

It was megastar Chiranjeevi himself, who met Rajamouli and persuaded him to let Charan go for a few days so that he could finish ‘Acharya’, the duo (Ram Charan and Koratala Siva) conveyed.

Ram Charan also reveals that it was his mother’s wish to see both his father and him on-screen, and she was the one who convinced Chiranjeevi to cast him in ‘Acharya’.

‘Acharya’ is slated for its release on April 29 and stars Kajal Aggarwal, and Pooja Hegde as the female leads opposite Chiranjeevi and Ram Charan, respectively.
