Cross-language casting rumors are buzzing louder than ever. Fans stitch Telugu and Bollywood power plays into one mega fantasy, with Odela2 drama and Tamannaah Bhatia in the middle, while Hrithik Roshan and Prabhas fuel Bahubali chatter.
On the TollywoodGossips thread, Odela2 is slammed as a horror misfire with weak VFX and a muddled plot. Critics also say the movie’s tone leans on shock value, and some blame producer Sampath Nandi for backing a project that didn’t land. The chatter even frames Tamannaah’s lead as a casualty of a troubled production cycle. [1]
Meanwhile, Bahubali rumors bounce between Telugu cinema and Bollywood. Shobu Yarlagadda shuts down the Hrithik rumor, insisting Bahubali was always led by Prabhas. The debate brushes up against Rajamouli’s reputed preference for Telugu leads, a point fans cite to explain why a Hindi-star casting clash feels off-brand for this epic. [2]
Another post repeats Shobu’s denial, underscoring that Hrithik was not approached for Bahubali. [3]
Bottom line: cross-language gossip thrives on fans linking Telugu blockbusters with Bollywood power players, but official clarifications keep the record straight.
