Ram Achanta and Gopi Achanta of 14 Reels Plus will finance the project. An official announcement is expected soon, with shooting scheduled to commence next year.
Vishwak Sen is more of a massy and intense actor. He is good at the straight-faced/poker-faced comedy genre in Tharun Bhascker type of films but Anudeep’s genre is slapstick, silly, and over the top.
