'You never know'
The actor, who has been busy with the promotions of his latest film, Saripodhaa Sanivaaram, said, "I don't know why this started — maybe it's because of the close relationship I share with the whole team. But nothing has been discussed so far about me playing a cameo in the film. However, I would love to be in a Prabhas anna, Nagi's, or Swapna's film. They are all very close to me, but I'm not sure about doing a cameo. I haven't actually thought about it, and I haven't done any cameos in a long time. I have my own jazz going on non-stop. But you never know.”
Nani to be seen as Lord Krishna?
Nani was also asked if fans could see him playing Lord Krishna in the Kalki 2898 AD sequel, to which the actor responded, "Not at all. I think Nagi said this, they won't be showing the face of Lord Krishna in the film, because Krishna's image should be like that only in (silhouette) our head. So they will play with Arjuna and Karna, the most important characters.
