Only a few hours ago, the internet was almost overflowing with reports about Rukmini Vasanth's inclusion in Yuva Rajkumar's debut film. The Sapta Sagaradaache Ello actress was approached by director Santhosh Ananddram & Co., claimed the reports (including ours), with the preliminary round of discussion expected to lead to her signing on to play the female lead. And with Rukmini already working with Hombale Films, who are producing the Yuva Rajkumar project, on Bagheera, it seemed quite plausible that she had come on board.

However, things have taken a sudden turn and it now comes to the fore that Rukmini Vasanth wasn't actually approached by team Yuva 01 (tentative title of the project). In her most recent conversation with a popular Kannada daily, she denies having discussed the project with the makers nor having been approached by anyone in the first place. The report does not, however, discuss how or why the speculations arose but it would seem that Yuva 01 female lead slot is still blank.

Santhosh Ananddram directs the Yuva Rajkumar film which is expected to go on floors sometime in March, with other reports suggesting that the team is keen on kicking it off on Puneeth Rajkumar's 48th birth anniversary on March 17th. Some also claim that the makers are planning on unveiling the title teaser of the film on the day.

Rukmini Vasanth, on the other hand, is awaiting Sriimurali's return to the sets of Bagheera following his recent injury while filming an action sequence. Almost all of her portions include the Ugramm actor and with him currently resting his foot post-surgery, Rukmini reveals that she will start shooting for Bagheera once he is back. Dr. Suri of Lucky fame directs the film with Prashanth Neel writing the story.
