Keerthy Suresh, who plays the female lead in the upcoming Nani-starrer Dasara, gifted 130 gold coins of 10 grams each to each unit member on the last day of shooting of the film. At current prices, her gesture should have cost her anywhere between Rs 70 lakh and Rs 75 lakh.

"Keerthy was quite emotional on the last day of the shoot," a source in the 'Dasara' unit said. "She wanted to give away something to the people who made her give her best for the film."

Keerthy Suresh plays a character named 'Vennela' in the movie. The Telugu-language pan-India movie is a period action-adventure drama written and directed by debutant Srikanth Odela, a protege of Sukumar. 

Dasara has music by Santhosh Narayanan and cinematography by Sathyan Sooryan. Navin Nooli edited the film while Avinash Kolla was the production designer, and Thota Srinivas penned the dialogues. The film, produced by SLV Cinemas, will be released on March 30.
