Vamshi Paidipally is attached to direct the forthcoming venture. The film is set to go before cameras after the release of Vijay’s much-anticipated film Beast, which is scheduled to enter theatres on April 13. Fans are excited to know that the makers have roped in Rashmika Mandanna as the female lead opposite Vijay.
Mandanna debuted in Tamil cinema with the 2016 film Sulthan. The film starred Karthi opposite her and performed well at the box-office. She was earlier offered to star alongside Vijay in Master, but the actress could not take up the role due to her busy schedule.
Mandanna is also gearing up to make her Bollywood debut with Mission Majnu, co-starring Siddharth Malhotra. She also shares the screen space with megastar Amitabh Bachchan in her second Bollywood film Goodbye.
