“I don’t know why this started — maybe it’s because of the close relationship I share with the whole team. But nothing has been discussed so far about me playing a cameo in the film. However, I would love to be in a Prabhas anna, Nagi’s, or Swapna’s film. They are all very close to me, but I’m not sure about doing a cameo. I haven’t actually thought about it, and I haven’t done any cameos in a long time. I have my own jazz going on non-stop. But you never know,” he told the media.
Nani is currently in the limelight because of his latest film ‘Saripodha Sanivaaram’, which opened in theatres on August 29.
