Nagarjuna Akkineni is all set to join forces with two accomplished National Award winners: director
Sekhar Kammula and actor
Dhanush. The trio will collaborate on the multilingual film, which has
Rashmika Mandana playing the female lead.
A well-informed source revealed to Hyderabad Times, “Contrary to popular belief, this won’t be a cameo. Nagarjuna will play a substantial role that contributes to the film’s narrative.
Sekhar Kammula recently met with Nagarjuna in Hyderabad to present the role and the film’s concept. Nagarjuna loved Sekhar’s script and agreed to come on board.”
Sekhar was in search of a versatile actor to take on this role, someone who could connect with audiences nationwide. Having a notable body of work in Hindi cinema, Sekhar felt Nagarjuna would be best suited for the role and reached out to him. The pre-production work is almost complete and the filmmakers are planning to start shooting for the film in December.
