Even as Nandamuri Balakrishna's Ruler is gearing up for release on December 20, the actor's next film was launched in Hyderabad today. The principal shooting of the untitled film will commence in January, after Sankranthi. 

To be directed by Boyapati Srinu, who has earlier churned out blockbusters like Simha and Legend with Balakrishna, the upcoming film is being bankrolled by Miryala Ravinder Reddy. It will have music by SS Thaman.

The makers are planning to release the film next summer.
