As reported earlier, writer Gopi Mohan’s hunt for a hero in his first directorial film seems to have come to an end. The yet-to-debut director was in talks with energetic star Ram Pothineni but he finally zeroed on comedian-turned-actor Sunil.

Malla Vijay Kumar will produce the film under the Welfare Creations banner and it is expected to go on floors in February, 2014. Actor Sunil is currently working for his next film ‘Dasara Bullodu’, which is undergoing post-production works. Soon after wrapping this film, Sunil joins Gopi Mohan’s project.

As a writer, Gopi Mohan worked for successful films like Dhee, Ready, Dookudu and Dhenikaina Ready, along with his co-writer Kona Venkat, who is also planning to wield the megaphone.
