Mahesh Babu – Buchi Babu Combo on the Cards? Director Reacts to Rumors

By TeluguFunda / June 15, 2026

The possibility of a collaboration between Superstar Mahesh Babu and director Buchi Babu has become a hot topic of discussion across social media and film circles. Speculation gained momentum after reports surfaced suggesting that Buchi Babu could direct Mahesh Babu in a mythological drama as his next project.

Addressing the rumors during a recent press interaction, Buchi Babu offered a measured response. The filmmaker stated that decisions regarding future projects would ultimately be taken by the producers and that only time would reveal what his next film would be. While he neither confirmed nor denied the reports, his comments have only fueled further curiosity among fans.

Buchi Babu recently directed “Peddi,” starring Ram Charan. The film opened to mixed reviews and registered a mixed performance at the box office. Despite the outcome, the director continues to command attention within the industry, with many eager to see what project he takes up next.

On the other hand, Mahesh Babu is currently occupied with director S.S. Rajamouli’s highly anticipated globe-trotting adventure, “Varanasi.” Scheduled for release in April 2027, the film is being positioned as one of the biggest Indian cinematic events in recent years. Given Rajamouli’s stellar track record and Mahesh Babu’s massive fan following, expectations surrounding the project remain exceptionally high.

With “Varanasi” still some distance away from release, speculation regarding Mahesh Babu’s future lineup is inevitable. Whether the actor eventually joins hands with Buchi Babu remains to be seen, but for now, the possibility of the combination has certainly caught the attention of movie enthusiasts and industry observers alike.
