Actor Prabhas’ next Telugu film to be directed by Radha Krishna Kumar will commence in January 2017. The film will be shot completely abroad and will have a lavish budget, the director told IANS.
“The shoot will commence from January 2017. The entire film will be shot abroad and we are currently zeroing in on the locations. It will be a love story and we are yet to finalise the leading lady, who will most likely be a newcomer. We’re still in the process of auditioning. In the next few weeks, we might be able to lock the heroine,” he added.
Radha Krishna Kumar had previously directed Jil (2015) starring Gopichand and Raashi Khanna. The project will be jointly bankrolled by Gopikrishna and UV Creations in which Prabhas is an active partner.
