K Manju, a well-known producer of Kannada cinema, has been talking about launching his son Shreyas Manju on the silver screen for some time now. In fact, the filmmaker has been in discussions with various directors hoping to get the best launch for him. It now looks like the search is over, and the youngster will soon make his tinseltown debut with choreographer-turned-director Imran Sardhariya at the helm.

While K Manju is taking his time to make an official announcement, we hear that the script writing and preparation work are going on in full swing, and after discussions with the director, more details will be revealed. If all goes according to plans, the project will go on the floors from January 2018.

A little birdie says that Imran, who is gearing up for the release of his upcoming film Uppu Huli Khara, has been working on the script, which will be a commercial entertainer with a heartwarming love story. “Shreyas’ launch will be with a youthful romance packed with action, and shoot is to take place in India and abroad,” says our source.

While the actor-to-be has taken his time to decide on his first movie, he has been dedicating a lot of time for his acting career, and has been trained in dance and fights and attended various workshops. Interestingly, Shreyas will have a makeover and it will be done by Imran Sardhariya’s wife Sania.
