Last year, the makers unveiled a concept poster to mark the announcement of the project. Going by the poster, the film appears to be a period romantic drama that unfolds in 1964.

Dulquer’s last Telugu outing was Mahanati (2018), in which he played veteran actor Gemini Ganesan. He received critical acclaim for his performance in the movie. 

Meanwhile, Dulquer awaits the release of his upcoming Malayalam true crime film Kurup.

The actor also has Tamil romantic drama Hey Sinamika with choreographer-turned-director Brindha Gopal in the pipeline. The film also stars Aditi Rao Hydari and Kajal Aggarwal.
