Apparently, a Bollywood actor is being considered for the role of a villain and it will feature two leading ladies.

Usually, most of the heroes in the film industry do not allow their directors to start a new project keeping aside the ongoing project. But Power Star Pawan Kalyan is one who agreed for Krish’s appeal and allowed him to make a movie with the young hero Vaishnav Tej and Rakul Preet Singh starrer before he joins the sets.

With the coronavirus lockdown, everyone postponed their shootings. According to Krish, he persuaded Pawan Kalyan that he would complete the film in 45 days. After getting the nod from Gabber Singh star, he roped Rakul Preet Singh and Vaishnav Tej for the film.
