Venu made a successful debut as a director with Balagam, is now working on his next film, Yellamma. It’s a love story set in Telangana and Sai Pallavi will play the lead role of Yellamma.
Known for being selective, Sai Pallavi has turned down many films in recent years with Thandel being the only one she accepted recently.
After hearing Venu’s narration she agreed to be part of Yellamma as her role is very important to the story.
Nithiin will play the male lead and the movie will start filming next year. Dil Raju’s Sri Venkateswara Creations is producing the project and most of the shooting will take place in Telangana’s villages.
Meanwhile, Nithiin has finished shooting for Thammudu and Robinhood, which are set to release next year. He has also agreed to work on a film with Vikram Kumar and will be filming both Yellamma and Vikram’s project at the same time.
