In an exclusive update, it has been officially confirmed that renowned music director Anirudh Ravichander will compose the music for Nani’s upcoming film with director Srikanth Odela. Sources close to HashtagU revealed, “Yes, Anirudh has been roped in for this Nani-Odela project. An official announcement is expected soon.”
Anirudh Ravichander, who previously composed music for Nani’s films Jersey and Gang Leader in 2019, is set to reunite with the actor. Since then, Anirudh has achieved acclaim for his work in Tamil, Telugu, and Hindi cinema with several blockbuster hits. Fans are eagerly anticipating their collaboration after a gap of six years, raising expectations for their upcoming project.
The upcoming film featuring Nani, directed by Srikanth Odela, is set against the backdrop of Secunderabad. Unlike his previous roles, Nani will portray an urban character in what promises to be a politically charged narrative. With a reported budget of ₹130 crore, this project marks one of Nani’s most ambitious undertakings to date.
Director Srikanth Odela took to social media, stating, “I promise to create an impact 100 times greater than #Dasara with #NaniOdela2.” Excitement is mounting for the film, particularly with the inclusion of Anirudh, who recently impressed with a blockbuster album and background score for Jr NTR’s Devara. Anticipations are high that the music of #NaniOdela2 will be exceptional. Stay tuned for further updates on this eagerly awaited project.
