Mahesh may opt out of '3 Rascals' for 'Dookudu' - JustTollywood.com News

On the lines of Vijay, who got out of Shankar’s prestigious remake of ‘3 Idiots’, Maheshbabu is all set to walk out of the project. There are two reasons behind this.Maheshbabu reportedly told Shankar that the Telugu version should not have many Tamil faces, but both the other heroes were from Tamil film industry. The other reason is that Maheshbabu had already given dates for Sreenu Vaitla for the forthcoming film ‘Dookudu’.

Director Shankar sought bulk dates for the movie which is almost impossible for the hero as he has given his dates to ‘Dookudu’. So Maheshbabu is finding ways as to how to adjust dates for Shankar, as he had already given commitment to Sreenu Vaitla. Got a cue from Vijay, Maheshbabu too might opt out of the project with due apologies to the great director.
