Actress Nazriya Fahadh, who has predominantly worked in Malayalam and Tamil cinema, is all set to make her Telugu debut alongside Nani in a yet-untitled project. The makers of the film, currently dubbed Nani 28, made the announcement on Friday.

The production company Mythri Movie Makers unveiled a poster to announce Nani and Nazriya's involvement in the project.

An excited Nazriya took to Instagram and wrote: “So this one will be my first Telugu film guys. Super excited for this one with this amazing team! Circle this date and tune in. Happy Diwali (sic).”

According to the poster, the title of the project will be announced on November 21. To be directed by Vivek Athreya, who rose to fame with Mental Madhilo (2017) and Brochevarevaru Ra (2019), the project goes on the floors next month.  

Nazriya, who got married to actor Fahadh Faasil in 2014, was away from the arc lights for four years. She made a comeback with Anjali Menon’s Malayalam drama Koode (2018) and was recently seen in Malayalam thriller Trance (2020) alongside her husband.

Nani has two other projects in the pipeline, one of which is titled Shyam Singha Roy. To be directed by Taxiwaala (2018) helmer Rahul Sankrityan, the film will feature three leading ladies.
