Pawan Kalyan's upcoming film, PSPK 30, is back on track. The Vakeel Saab actor resumed shooting for the Saagar K Chandra film earlier today.

The makers announced the news by sharing a photo of the actor as police officer Bheemla Nayak on social media.

A remake of the Malayalam action-thriller Ayyappanum Koshiyum, the shooting of PSPK 30 had come to a grinding halt after Pawan Kalyan tested positive for COVID-19 earlier in April. Although he tested negative in May, the actor was advised some rest by a team of doctors.

Produced by S Naga Vamsi, the action thriller also features Rana Daggubati, Nithya Menen and Aishwarya Rajesh in important roles. Ayyappanum Koshiyum revolves around the battle of egos between a police officer named Ayyappan Nair, played by Biju Menon, and an ex-Havildar named Koshy Kurien, essayed by Prithviraj Sukumaran. While Pawan Kalyan will be seen in Biju Menon's role, Rana will reprise Prithviraj's character.

According to a well-placed source, the team is currently filming the scene in which Pawan Kalyan's Bheemla Nayak and his team of cops arrest Rana's character, who gets caught in an inebriated state while also carrying bottles of alcohol in a prohibited area. This schedule will go on for 15 days and Nithya Menen, who replaced Sai Pallavi and is paired opposite Pawan, will be joining the sets soon.

The film was recently in the news after its cinematographer Prasad Murella walked out of the film citing creative differences as a reason. Buzz is that he was replaced by Ravi K Chandran. The music of PSPK 30 is composed by SS Thaman.
