Ritu Varma bags Nikhil’s Next

After #Pellichoopulu fared well, the film’s lead actors really benefitted from it. While both Vijay Devarakonda and Ritu Varma have been around for a while, they saw a new stardom after the film. And Ritu Varma, who recently signed Adivi Sesh’s next film with Abhishek Pictures, has now been signed on to play the female lead in Nikhil’s next. To be directed by Sudheer Varma, the film is a mystery thriller and will go on the floors later this year.

While Ritu hasn’t been officially signed in, we hear the talks are on and she’s likely to give a nod soon as she’s impressed by the script as well.
