Kattapa mulling over playing negative for VishalPrabhas’ ‘Mirchi’ did reintroduce Tamil actor Satyaraj to Telugu audiences as a senior actor who can play decent powerful characters with ease. With ‘Baahubali’, Kattappa’s role took the actor’s popularity to a different height not only in Tollywood but also in Kollywood.

It’s obvious that many filmmakers want to cast him for powerful characters in their upcoming films to cash his present popularity. A sequel for Vishal’s superhit movie ‘Pandem Kodi’ (Sandakozhi) is on cards. The makers now want to rope in Satyaraj to play the baddie in the movie.

It’s time for Satyaraj to decide whether to go back to the days when he played the baddie in some movies. His image has changed to a positive one totally these days. Linguswamy wants to rope in Satyaraj for the negative characters. But it’s left to see if Satyaraj is interested or not.
