Chiranjeevi, who was last seen in Surrender Reddy's multi-lingual Sye Raa Narashima Reddy, in a recent interview, talked about actor Trisha's sudden exit from his upcoming movie Acharya. He said that the actor was unable to accommodate Acharya in her schedule since Mani Ratnam's Ponniyin Selvan shoot demanded longer schedules. Chiranjeevi in the interview also rubbished the rumours of creative difference between Trisha and Acharya team. He revealed that he had a chat with his team and they denied any creative difference.

Trisha was supposed to make Tollywood return with Acharya, however, she announced her exit from the project a few weeks ago. Following this, the makers of the film signed Kajal Aggarwal to play the lead alongside Chiranjeevi. While Trisha's exit from Acharya gave way to multiple rumours, but with Chiranjeevi's latest revelation, it seems clear why Trisha exited Acharya midway.
