Sai Pallavi, Sharwanand to reunite for Kishore Tirumala’s next Telugu feature

Sai Pallavi and Sharwanand Myneni are all set to reunite for director Kishore Tirumala’s upcoming, yet-to-be-titled Telugu film, which will start rolling from June. After working together in the Telugu romantic drama, Padi Padi Leche Manasu (2018), which bombed at the box-office, reports indicate the duo will reunite for this project. 

Apparently, Tirumala will be making a light-hearted romantic comedy and Sai Pallavi and Sharwanand have given their consent to the project.

Currently busy with the post-production of upcoming Telugu thriller Red, Tirumala will finalise the rest of the cast and crew for this project in May. Sudhakar Cherukuri, who bankrolled Padi Padi Leche Manasu, will produce this project as well.

Meanwhile, Sai Pallavi is currently shooting for two Telugu projects, which are Love Story and Virataparvam. The former is being directed by Sekhar Kammula, and is the actress's first collaboration with Naga Chaitanya. However, this will be her second film with Kammula. She made her Telugu debut in Fidaa, which also starred Varun Tej and proved to be a blockbuster.

In Rana Daggubati’s Virataparvam, the actress will be seen playing a Naxalite. The film also stars Nandita Das in a crucial role. 

Talking about the project, Kammula had said: “It's a love story of a boy and girl, who move to the city from their village to pursue their dreams.” He went on to reveal that the film will see Chaitanya speak in the Telangana dialect.  

Sharwanand, on the other hand, was last seen in Telugu romantic drama Jaanu (2020), the remake of Tamil film 96 (2018), co-starring Samantha Akkineni. The film sank without a trace at the box-office.
