A project in the combination of NTR and director Koratala Siva was announced formally earlier this year. Tentatively titled NTR30, Koratala Siva’s close aide Sudhakar Mikkilineni is turning as a producer for the film. Sudhakar in association with Tarak’s elder brother Kalyan Ram is bankrolling the movie.
A few days back news came out that Sudhakar Mikkilineni opened an office in Sri Nagar Colony in Hyderabad. Director Koratala Siva, noted producers Dil Raju, DVV Danayya among others attended the opening of Yuvasudha Arts office.
For the past few weeks, news is circulating among film circles that Bollywood beauty Janhvi Kapoor is likely to play the female lead role. Meanwhile, the latest news is that if Janhvi Kapoor is not available to play the female lead, the makers are keen on approaching Rashmika Mandanna as the female lead, say sources.
Reportedly, the pre-production work for the film has already begun. Director Koratala Siva along with cinematographer Rathnavelu and production designer Sabu Cyril are already on the hunt for the locations.
Rockstar Anirudh will be scoring soundtracks for this massive pan-India project. The film’s formal pooja ceremony is likely to happen in mid-January and go on the floors from the same month.
