In an interesting turn of events, reports are circulating that Samantha Ruth Prabhu may be joining the impressive cast of 'RC16.' Directed by Buchi Babu Sana, reports suggest that Samantha would play a significant role in the movie. This speculation has sparked interest, especially since Samantha and Ram Charan have previously shared the screen in the blockbuster 'Rangasthalam'.

Before these reports, there were casting rumours about Rasha Thadani, the daughter of Raveena Tandon, and later Sai Pallavi being considered for the lead role. However, these stories have evolved over time, and Samantha's name is now the most recent and prominent.

Adding to the excitement of the cast is the presence of renowned Kannada actor Shiva Rajkumar. In a recent interview, the actor himself revealed that he will also be part of 'RC16.' He disclosed that he has signed on to two projects, one of them being a Telugu film starring alongside Ram Charan. Fans are even more eager to see what he delivers as this venture further develops.

Regarding the film itself, 'RC16' is shaping up to be a rural sports drama. It promises to showcase Ram Charan in a raw and earthy avatar, a departure from his previous roles. Director Buchi Babu Sana has been nurturing the script for about four years, pouring his heart and soul into it. His dedication and confidence hint at a potential blockbuster in the making.

Meanwhile, Samantha's addition has not been formally announced by the ‘RC16’ team.
