We had earlier reported that Dulquer Salmaan would be teaming up with debutant director Desingh Periyasamy for an untitled Tamil film. Now, Desingh has informed us about the female lead and a few interesting updates about the film.
"We have signed Ritu Varma as the female lead. There are not two heroines in the film, and it is just one (Ritu Varma). Dulquer will join the sets and start shooting for the film from the month of October, after completing the shoot of his Hindi film.", said Desingh.
Stay tuned for more updates about this film.
We had reported earlier that, Nag Ashwin’s film which happens to be the Savithri biopic said to be titled Nadigayar Thilagam in Tamil and Mahanati in Telugu, has Keerthy Suresh reprising the role of Savithri. Also part of the cast are Samantha, Dulquer Salmaan and Arjun Reddy fame Vijay Deverakonda.
The latest is that, the actress Shalini Pandey of Arjun Reddy might also play a role in this Savithri biopic. If this gets a positive confirmation, the Arjun Reddy pair of Vijay Deverakonda and Shalini will be back for this big biopic film by Nag Ashwin. However, an official word from the team is still awaited.
It is said that, Shalini Pandey has been flooded with offers from Tamil and Telugu makers but is apparently taking it slow to do something positive, following her breakthrough film Arjun Reddy.
