South Indian actors, like Bollywood stars, are extremely popular. Some South Indian actors worked in Bollywood to achieve greater success, while others refused to participate in the industry. Now, in this article, we will take a look at the list of South Indian actors who preferred not to work in the Bollywood film industry.
Allu Arjun
Allu Arjun is a well-known actor in the South Indian cinema industry, and his films are box office successes. His films include Arya, Gurram, and many others. He had offers from Bollywood, but he declined. According to sources, he stated that he is not yet ready for the Bollywood industry.
Nivin Pauly
The Malayalam actor has good looks which made his admirers go crazy when a photo of him with Bollywood’s maverick director Anurag Kashyap surfaced on social media last year. They had every reason to go insane.
What a fantasy it would be to witness Nivin Pauly in a dark and realistic picture about the filth of urban crime with Bollywood’s best filmmaker? But, Nivin has decided to focus his efforts solely on Malayalam films for the time being. Perhaps, he will change his mind later and make an announcement.
Anushka Shetty
Anushka Shetty is one of the most stunning actresses working in the South film industry. Everyone is anticipating her Bollywood debut, but she stated in an interview that she does not want to work in Bollywood because she already has several projects in the South, according to sources.
Naga Chaitanya
In the past, the attractive, chocolatey actor and Samantha Ruth Prabhu’s spouse has performed many jaw-dropping performances. He has featured in Majili, Ye Maaya Chesave, Venky Mama, Premam, and some other films.
Naga Chaitanya’s father Nagarjuna has already acted in Bollywood films such as Zakhm, Khuda Gawah, LOC: Kargil, and others. Naga Chaitanya, on the other hand, has no aspirations to work in Bollywood films as of now.
On the other hand, Nagarjuna is going to star in Ayan Mukerji’s Brahmastra alongside Amitabh Bachchan, Ranbir Kapoor, Alia Bhatt, and Mouni Roy. Alia and Ranbir will star in the key roles in this legendary trilogy. The film will be produced by Karan Johar’s Dharma Production.
Mahesh Babu
According to rumours, he was offered a role in Bollywood, and his admirers were overjoyed. However, he clarified that it is only a rumour and that he is not going to work in Bollywood.
