Speculation is mounting in the South Indian film industry regarding the highly anticipated collaboration between National Award-winning actor Allu Arjun and blockbuster director Atlee. Following the massive success of Jawan, Atlee is set to team up with the Pushpa star for a high-budget project currently referred to as AA22xA6. Reports suggest the film will be a large-scale sci-fi action entertainer, marking a significant shift in genre for both the actor and the filmmaker. Anushka Sharma NOT a Part of Allu Arjun and Lokesh Kanagaraj’s Upcoming Film ‘AA 23’ (EXCLUSIVE).

‘AA22xA6’ Title: ‘Wildfire’ or ‘Legacy’?

According to a recent report in Deccan Herald, the AA22xA6 production team is considering ‘Wildfire’ as the official title for the project. The name has gained traction among fan circles and industry insiders, aligning with the high-octane, explosive nature of Atlee’s previous directorial ventures.

However, ‘Wildfire’ is not the only name in contention. Alternative reports indicate that the film could be titled ‘Legacy.’ While the production house has yet to confirm either name, the buzz surrounding the title has intensified as the project moves closer to the pre-production phase.
