Champion is Roshan Meka’s new film, which was released as a Christmas special and has taken a decent opening at the box office. The period drama had been in the making for nearly three years, and Roshan Meka poured his heart and soul into the project.
Roshan Meka signs two back to back biggies
His performance has been widely appreciated, and with this film, the star kid of popular TV anchor Suma and actor Rajeev Kanakala seems to have finally arrived.
Roshan has now emerged as one of the most promising young actors in Telugu cinema. According to industry buzz, he has already signed two back-to-back films.
The first is with Geetha Arts, the prestigious production house owned by Allu Aravind and associated with Allu Arjun. This upcoming project is said to be a romantic drama and is expected to go on floors in the second half of 2026.
Next in line is another romantic drama, which is likely to be directed by acclaimed filmmaker Gautham Menon. The project is almost locked, with only a few last-minute formalities pending.
Sources close to the actor have also revealed that the makers of Champion are keen to collaborate with Roshan once again for another film, which may also be helmed by Gautham Menon.
Roshan Meka made his debut with Pelli SandaD, which ended as a decent hit at the box office. However, it was actress Sreeleela who walked away with most of the limelight.
