Dr Ram Charan: Chennai university confers honorary doctorate on power star
Telugu superstar Ram Charan, who will be seen in ‘RC 16’ and ‘RC 17’, received an honorary doctorate in literature from the Vels University in Chennai on Saturday.
Actress Samantha Ruth Prabhu is not playing a visually impaired character in her upcoming yet-untitled Telugu project co-starring Ram Charan.
"Rumours doing the rounds that Samantha plays a blind character in Ram Charan's film is totally false and baseless," the film's spokesperson said.
Being directed by Sukumar, the film is said to be a period romantic drama set against village backdrop.

The shoot is currently underway in Rajahmundry, Andhra Pradesh.
Jagapathi Babu has been confirmed to play a pivotal role, most likely of the antagonist.
Devi Sri Prasad will compose the tunes, while Rathnavelu will crank the camera.
