Nani, who is producing the project, has confirmed that the Chiranjeevi-Srikanth Odela film has hit a roadblock and will not move forward in the immediate future. The project was announced last year with considerable excitement, but Nani's busy acting schedule and delays surrounding his upcoming film The Paradise have affected its progress.

Tracktollywood.com reports that the film is not necessarily shelved, as Srikanth Odela had indicated he would take a break after The Paradise. Greatandhra.com adds that Nani has indicated he needs to review overall plans before taking forward both the Chiranjeevi project and HIT 4, which features Karthi. The exact reasons for the delay have not been revealed in detail.
The three sources agree on the core fact: Nani has publicly said the Chiranjeevi-Odela film is paused. 123telugu.com leads with the emotional framing of fan disappointment, while Tracktollywood.com adds that the project is not shelved and notes Odela's plan to rest after The Paradise. Greatandhra.com provides the most concrete reason: Nani's busy acting lineup and The Paradise delays. The balanced reading is that the project is delayed, not cancelled, and its fate likely depends on The Paradise release. The Paradise release date will determine when this project can restart.
