This untitled film will be the second time the actor will work with the duo after the 2018 horror-comedy Stree. 

In his post, Rao wrote that he is excited for fans and the audience to watch what the three have in store. 

Here is the post:

According to The Indian Express, Rao's colleagues from the film industry including Bhumi Pednekar and Aparshakti Khurana expressed excitement on this development.

Fans also reiterated this emotion and in the comments section speculated whether this project is the sequel to Stree. 

In 2018, producer Dinesh Vijan, who bankrolled Stree along with Raj and DK had confirmed that Stree 2 is on the cards, according to a report in Firstpost. 

Vijan had said that the makers had always imagined Stree as a franchise and the sequel will be set before the events of the first film. It was also reported that Stree 2 would go on floors in 2019, however, there has been no update on the film ever since. 

Among Rao's other upcoming films is Anubhav Sinha’s Bheed, HIT: The First Case, Badhaai Do, Monica, Oh My Darling, and Mr And Mrs Mahi.
