The formal launch ceremony of Darshan-starrer Roberrt, directed by Tharun Sudhir, was held today, after which the shooting commenced. With details of the rest of the cast and crew still under wraps, it has now come to light that Jagapati Babu will play the antagonist in Roberrt. 

Touted to be an emotional action thriller, the big-budget project, made under Umapathy Films, will see Darshan and Jagapati sharing screen space for the first time. A 45-day schedule has been planned, and shooting began in Bengaluru at Kanteerava Studio.

Interestingly, the makers have got the artistes and technicians to sign an NDA, and have imposed a ban on mobile phones on the sets. The team is yet to zero in on the female lead and the music director.
