Nikhil is slated to play the role of a journalist in the film while Lavanya plays his love interest on the screens. Lavanya Tripathi was last seen in Sai Dharam Tej’s ‘Intelligent’ film which was a flop at the box office over seas. Nikhil was last seen in ‘Kirrak Party’ which was also not up to the mark with the collections. So, the combination of these actors is the most fresh one. They are working together for the first time.

But after Catherine couldn’t give her dates for this project, the makers decided that Lavanya Tripathi is the perfect fit for this role. Shooting has already started and about 30 percent of it is almost completed,” revealed a source from the film’s unit crew.
