The latest buzz in the industry is that Mahesh Babu might team up with a new director for his next project. This newcomer's name is not known.

The reports come on a day when there is this strong rumour that the 'Sarileru Neekevvaru' actor has called off his project with 'Maharshi' director Vamshi Paidipally. It doesn't seem to be a mere coincidence that two rumours related to the actor are doing the rounds.

It will be quite interesting if Mahesh were to indeed work with a newcomer. He has always gone in for star names like Koratala Siva, Sukumar and Anil Ravipudi.

In the past, the names of Trivikram Srinivas and others were heard in the context of Mahesh's probable directors in 2020. None of it has turned out to be true.

The superstar is currently relaxing after holidaying with his family early this year.
