Published: Updated: 3 minutes read

When many South Indian stars including Prabhas, Dulquer Salmaan, Chiranjeevi taking up lead roles in Bollywood films, there is a whole lot of actors down the Tropic of Cancer who don’t wish to move to B-Town. With the world becoming smaller and different crossovers we get to see, it seems inevitable for actors to move from North to South and vice versa. Some have already including Naga Chaitanya, Tamannaah Bhatia, Madhavan, Asin, Siddharth, etc.

On the same hand, you will be surprised to see how many successful South Indian stars have turned down Bollywood offers. These artists don’t feel that Bollywood is their cup of tea and is happy doing their respective regional films. Here is a list of such South Indian stars.

1. Allu Arjun

Allu Arjun is a ‘Huge’ name down the South. From making a breakthrough in Arya to smashing the box office records in Race Gurram, the handsome hunk of Telugu cinema has come a long way. It seems obvious that after making big in South Indian film industry, he might want to move to Bollywood to prove his mettle.

But Arjun rather sticks to his roots and a Bollywood debut is far from his plans right now. Even if he does make an appearance in a Bollywood film, it would be a smashing hit for sure.

2. Mahesh Babu

Though, many people up North drool over his good looks and charm, Mahesh Babu is contended with where he is. Two years ago, rumours started doing rounds that Babu will make a Bollywood debut with Businessman remake.

However, his fans’ dreams were shattered when he cleared the air and rubbished such rumours.

3. Anushka Shetty

We are waiting so hard for Anushka Shetty to do a Bollywood film just like her alleged beau Prabhas, but that doesn’t seem to happening anytime soon. Rumour has it that Shetty has denied many big Bollywood films citing lack of time.

When she was asked if she would ever enter the Bollywood film industry, she humbly refused saying she already has too much on her plate. We just hope Anushka soon finds some time for doing Bollywood films as well.

4. Nivin Pauly

The Malayalam actor has surely got looks to kill for. Last year, his picture with Bollywood’s maverick director Anurag Kashyap surfaced on social media and his fans went berserk. They had all the apt reasons to go crazy.

What a dream it would be to see Nivin Pauly with Bollywood’s finest filmmaker acting in a dark and realistic film made on the filth of urban crime. Unfortunately, Nivin decides to focus only on Malayalam cinema as of now. Maybe, later he changes his mind and we see an announcement coming soon.

5. Naga Chaitanya

The handsome, chocolaty actor and the husband of Samantha Ruth Prabhu has delivered many jaw-dropping performances in the past. He has acted in films like Majili, Ye Maaya Chesave, Venky Mama, Premam and many more. His father, Nagarjuna has already acted in Bollywood films like Zakhm, Khuda Gawah, LOC: Kargil etc. However, Naga Chaitanya himself doesn’t have any plans working n Bollywood films for now.

It’s going to be a mythological trilogy with Alia and Ranbir in lead roles. Bankrolled by Karan Johar’s Dharma Production, the film is slated to release in December this year.
