DJ Tillu actress Neha Shetty signs Kiran Abbavaram's Rules Ranjan

Actress Neha Shetty, whose career took off with Puri Jagannadh's Mehbooba in Telugu, scored the first major success in the industry earlier this year with DJ Tillu. The film asserted her authority in the commercial space and showcased her ability to pull off comedy with relative ease. The Mungaru Male 2 actress, who's reportedly doing a film with Karthikeya Gummakonda, has signed another interesting project.

The film is helmed by Rathinam krishna and jointly produced by Divyang Lavania and V Murali Krishna under Star Light Entertainments Pvt. Ltd. Rules Ranjan is presented by leading producer AM Rathnam. The shoot of the light-hearted entertainer is progressing at a brisk pace and big names have been roped from other industries for the same.

Neha Shetty has already joined the team in the middle of the first schedule. Rules Ranjan's cast also features Vennela Kishore, Himani, Vaishali, Jayavani, Mumtaz, Satya, Annu Kapoor, Siddharth Sen, Atul Parchure, Ashish Vidhyarthi, Ajay, Goparaju Ramana, Gemini Suresh, Tulasi, Abhimanyu Singh, Himani, Vaishali, Jayavani, Mumtaz and Manohar Singh. Kiran Abbavaram also has theatrical release in the coming week, Sammathame, where he is paired alongside Chandini Chowdary.
