Mahesh Babu in next more powerful, ruthless: Puri Jagannadh

Filmmaker Puri Jagannadh, who is teaming up with superstar Mahesh Babu for the third time in upcoming Telugu actioner "Jana Gana Mana", says the actor will feature in a character that's more ruthless and powerful than his last two outings.

"You all know my love for @urstrulyMahesh. I assure you that this time he will be more ruthless than Pokkiri n more powerful than Businessman (sic)," Jagannadh posted on his Twitter page on Thursday.

On Thursday, Jagannadh announced his new project on the occasion of "Pokkiri", his first collaboration with Mahesh, having successfully clocked a decade.

Tipped to go on the floors later this year, the rest of the cast and crew of the film are yet to be finalized.
