Buzz is that top hero Nagarjuna will not be doing any film in 2009 or wouldn’t be shooting for any film for another 8 months. He wants to go slow now as he has other plans than acting; two reasons are cited for his long leave. With his son Chaitu (as Naga Chaitanya is called at home) is making grand debut this year as hero, Nag wants to oversee that maiden film.

Chaitu’s maiden film being produced by Dil Raju would be releasing in Summer 2009. The other reason is that Nagarjuna is corporatising his studio, Annapurna Studios, and is developing it with high-end facilities. So, 2009 will take most of his time for these activities, and he might not be taking up any other film until late 2009.

On the other hand, Nagarjuna's current movie titled King, directed by Sreenu Vaitla, is releasing on December 19th this year.
