The director of Kingdom, Gowtam Tinnanuri, reportedly approached Ram Charan in 2022, when the film Acharya was under production, and presented a script to him. Charan was said to be impressed by the presentation. The production phase of the project was expected to begin after he wrapped up his work on RRR and Acharya, but the project was eventually shelved permanently. According to BollywoodShaadis, the same project has now been repurposed into Kingdom, with Vijay Deverakonda in the lead.
What does the producer of Kingdom say about replacing Ram Charan?
Suryadevara Naga Vamsi, the producer of Kingdom, in a recent press interaction, dispelled the rumour by confirming that the script narrated to Ram Charan was completely different from Kingdom. This was reported by 123Telugu. With this, he finally put the rumour to rest.
