‘AA22xA6’: Atlee calls Deepika Padukone his lucky star, and the most ambitious film builds buzz |

Director Atlee has revealed Deepika Padukone is his ‘lucky charm’ for his ambitious pan-Indian film ‘AA22xA6’, starring alongside Allu Arjun. The project, described as grand and tech-heavy, promises a unique portrayal of Padukone post-pregnancy. With an ensemble cast including Kajol and Janhvi Kapoor, the film is generating significant buzz for its scale and cultural fusion.

Atlee’s grand project with Allu Arjun, ‘AA22xA6’ is the most anticipated and talked about upcoming pan-Indian film. This would be Allu Arjun’s first film with Atlee, and the director stated that this movie would be made on a bigger canvas than ever before. This movie has been the talk of the town because of several film discussion videos doing the rounds on social media platforms, which made the audience wonder about the canvas, genre, and stars of the film. It was only after Deepika Padukone was confirmed for the film that there was a lot of talk about the biggest box-office combo. Now the movie is getting a fast pace before an official announcement.

Atlee calls Deepika his lucky charm

Terming Deepika Padukone his “lucky charm”, Atlee has been candid about the actress and how she made him feel while working with her again after their mega success with ‘Jawan’. He called Deepika “unbelievable” and credited her for her “immense creativity” and hard work. Interestingly, in ‘AA22xA6’, Deepika Padukone’s character is also going to be her first post-pregnancy, and Atlee feels it is going to have a completely different portrayal of the actress onscreen. Audiences can look forward to a totally different Deepika Padukone, Atlee suggests.

Atlee’s grand and tech-heavy vision

What has added to the anticipation is the sneak peek dropped earlier, where Deepika is seen engaged in intense discussions with Atlee prior to the shoot. The promo suggested that she would look good in a glamorous action role, which matches the ambition of the film indeed. Informally, the film is marketed to be high on effects and set in two worlds, packed with drama, scale, and massive action. Atlee has stated that the team is going through sleepless nights to build the world of ‘AA22xA6’ into a beautiful cinematic experience that combines the best of Indian culture with the best from world cinema.

An ensemble cast of ‘AA22xA6’

Beyond Allu Arjun and Deepika Padukone, ‘AA22xA6’ has a colossal cast of actors, including Kajol, Rashmika Mandanna, Janhvi Kapoor, Mrunal Thakur, Ramya Krishnan, Yogi Babu, and Jim Sarbh, among others, in the lead role. Although there are reports on Atlee’s next project, the director has underscored his priorities, and this movie will be his center of attention for the time being.
