Urvashi Rautela is confident about her first pan-Indian release, The Legend

As The Legend is gearing up for release, Urvashi Rautela, is a picture of excitement and confidence. She plays the female lead in this one, directed by JD and Jerry, who have previously made Whistle and Ajith-starrer, Ullasam.

Expressing excitement, Urvashi said, at last, her goal of becoming a pan-Indian actor was realised with the launch of the Legend trailer. “With its stunning surroundings, vibrant music, comedic tunes, and necessary social message, the film is a big-budget mainstream entertainment.”

Urvashi will be seen playing a microbiologist and IITian in The Legend. “The film will also convey a message about the educational system. I appreciate everyone's kindness and genuine affection they have shown me thus far,” she added.

Said to be sci-fi, the makers have planned to release The Legend in Tamil, Kannada, Telugu, Hindi, and Malayalam.

The Legend marks the acting debut of Legend Saravanan, who owns the retail chain New Saravana Stores. After he was featured prominently in several of their advertisements, speculations were rife that he was going to make an entry into films. Finally, it happened!

The filming of The Legend began at the legendary AVM Studios, in the presence of producer AVM Saravanan, as well as veteran director SP Muthuraman. The film will have Geetika Tiwary making her debut alongside Saravanan. The supporting cast includes Prabhu, Suman, late Vivek, Nassar, Kali Venkat, Vijayakumar, Yogi Babu, Vamsi Krishna and Kovai Sarala.

Legend Saravanan himself is producing the film, the release date of which is expected to be out soon. It has music by Harris Jayaraj, cinematography by Velraj, and editing by Ruben.

The Legend was in the news recently as Mosalo Mosalu, the first single, was released. The song marked the comeback of Harris Jayaraj, after a hiatus of three years. The track has a dash of his usual template of gibberish lyrics and is penned by Pa Vijay.
