While Sibiraj announced that his next production will be the remake of the Telugu thriller Kshanam, it is unclear whether this project is a remake or an original script.
Directed by newcomer Ravikanth Perepu, Kshanam starred Adivi Sesh and Adah Sharma, and received positive reviews, in addition to doing exceptionally well at the box-office. The film is a thriller in which the protagonist (Sesh) returns from to India from the USA, to find the kidnapped daughter of his ex-girlfriend.
Shooting of the film will begin in November. Apart from this film, Sibiraj awaits the release of Kattapava Kaanom.
