"King Nagarjuna," as he is fondly called by fans, has been ruling the South Indian film industry for decades, ever since his debut in 1986. Praveen Sattaru is helming his upcoming project, who also directed the National Award-winning anthology Chandamama Kathalu. The Ghost-Killing Machine will portray Nagarjuna in a massy avatar after several years and is expected to be a crowd-puller at the theaters.
