“This is indeed not something one will expect, however things are on track and soon Vishnu Manchu sir will be announcing her replacement as the makers are in talks with few leading ladies,” concluded the source.

Almost a month back, the makers posted pictures of Nupur attending the mahurat of the movie.

Produced by the Legendary Mohan Babu under the banner 24 Frames Factory and AVA Entertainment, the movie is helmed by Mukesh Kumar Singh and promises to be a mega cinematic joyride with a a big stellar cast that is slated to be revealed soon.
