Dr Rajasekhar's upcoming thriller Sekhar is all geared up to hit the screens on May 20. Initially, the makers had planned to release the film on February 4, but it was postponed to summer to accommodate other releases. The film brings together Rajasekhar and his elder daughter Shivani for the first time.

A remake of Malayalam's acclaimed hit Joseph (2018), Sekhar tells the story of a suspended police officer and his resolve to unravel the mystery behind a murder case. The PSV Garudavega actor has gone for a complete makeover and will be seen sporting a salt-and-pepper look for the first time in the film. The film was shot extensively in Araku, Srisailam, and Hyderabad.

Directed by Jeevitha Rajasekhar, Sekhar also has Athmiya Rajan and Muskaan Khubchandani as the female leads.
