Rishi with Faria Abdullah & Thiruveer
Actor Rishi sprung a big surprise on everyone with his edgy and violent role as Bali in Shaitan, the Telugu crime web series which also marked his Telugu debut. One saw the performance as a major departure for the actor from the kind of characters he had played in the past, meaning that he was willing to experiment with his choices in order to keep the fire in him burning. And in this vein, Rishi has signed another interesting-look Telugu project which also stars enterprising actors like Faria Abdullah and Thiruveer.
The untitled project was formally launched earlier today, on the auspicious occasion of Dasara. With Gopi G making his directorial debut and the combination of Ravi Panasa & Asian Cinemas backing the film, the film was kicked off amid the presence of the core cast and crew with Telugu filmmaker Venu Udugula directing the customary first shot and BRS party leader Dasoju Shravan doing the honours with the clapboard.
According to a Telugu media outlet, the said project will be an interesting blend of genres and is currently being described as a romantic period drama that has undertones of politics and action. Regardless, one does see this to be an exciting venture for Rishi and the rest of the cast. While Dasara was chosen as the opportune time to launch the film, the shooting is expected to begin on October 25th, Wednesday.
