Chiru, Koratala team up

Megastar Chiranjeevi and director Koratala Siva's film was formally launched on Tuesday during auspicious Dasara festival. Koratala Siva has been waiting for the film to launch for the last ten months.

But Chiranjeevi wanted his dream project 'Sye Raa' to hit the screens before commencing this movie. The 60-plus actor won critical acclaim and accolades for his performance as Uyyalawada Narasimha Reddy in 'Sye Raa...'

The big ticket film is being produced by Ram Charan in association with Niranjan Reddy of Matinee Entertainments. Koratala's trusted cinematographer Thiru will handle the camera. Sreekar Prasad will be editing the movie. The music director's name has not been announced.

Shoot begins soon, said the production house. The heroine is yet to be finalized. Chiranjeevi has lost weight to be fit for this role.
