The second schedule of Sarkaru Vaari Paata starring Mahesh Babu and Keerthy Suresh has begun in a specially-crafted set in Shankarpally.

Initially, the team had planned to shoot these portions in the USA, but they called off the plan due to a sudden spike in COVID-19 cases. They also planned to complete these portions in Dubai, but the team has decided against it and they are now shooting in Hyderabad itself with a limited crew.

"A 20-day schedule of the film is being planned with Mahesh Babu and others. Mahesh joined the sets on Tuesday taking all necessary precautions to ensure protection from COVID-19. He is determined to complete the film by July," says a source.

Directed by Parasuram Petla, the film's first schedule was wrapped up in Dubai in the last week of February.

Sarkaru Vaari Paata is being produced by Mythri Movie Makers in association with 14 Reels Plus and GMB Entertainments. The film, which features Vennela Kishore and Subbaraju in supporting roles,  has music by S Thaman.
