Puri Jagannadh’s dream project Jana Gana Mana was actually supposed to take off with Mahesh Babu. Puri had pitched the project to Mahesh after their successful movie Businessman. A poster of the film with Mahesh Babu was also released but for some reason though, the project never took off. Puri then approached Pawan Kalyan for the same and for a while, it appeared as if the project might happen but then it went into abeyance again. Finally, Puri is all set to do the film with Vijay Devarakonda. All that remains to be seen now is whether Mahesh and Pawan’s loss will turn out to be Devarakonda’s gain. Ironically, the poster of the film with Mahesh Babu in it is still intact on the timeline of Puri Jagannadh. ‘JGM’ is a patriotic story of an Army officer and the name of the mission undertaken by him is ‘Jana Gana Mana’. The movie will be releasing on August 3, 2023.
