Allu Arjun was supposed to join hands with Venu Sriram for Icon. This project was officially announced as well. But Venu later turned busy with Vakeel Saab and then, Allu Arjun didn’t pick up this project.
Venu then started to explore other options and he is said to have landed one now as he has apparently impressed Nithiin with the script.
Apparently, Venu pitched the modified version of Icon’s script to Nithiin and the latter liked it very much. This project could materialize very soon and have its official announcement shortly after that.
