Hanu Raghavapudi's last release Padi Padi Leche Manasu did not quite create the expected impact at the box office. However, the filmmaker is all geared up to start his new project soon,

The director, who is known for helming versatile films like Andhala Rakshasi, Krishnagadi Veera Prema Gaadha, and Lie, will be dealing with a women-centric subject this time. The film, in all probability, will go on floors in late summer.

According to a source, this yet-untitled film is likely to feature Pooja Hegde as the female lead. "Hanu has narrated the script to Pooja and she is impressed with both her character and the genre. However, he is yet to get confirmation from the actor," says the source close to the team.

The film will be bankrolled by Swapna Cinema in association with Vyjayanthi Movies banner.
