Darshan’s film with Tharun Kishore Sudhir is all set to roll from August 5

Darshan, who is currently dubbing for V Harikrishna's Kranti is gearing up to begin shooting for his next film. The Challenging Star, who is teaming up with director Tharun Kishore Sudhir for an action drama, tentatively titled D56 is all set to shoot for the film from August 5. “The muhurath of our film will take place early morning on the auspicious occasion of Varamahalakshmi festival, post which, we will begin the shooting,” confirmed producer Rockline Venkatesh, who is bankrolling the project under his home banner, Rockline Entertainments.

The actor-director’s previous collaboration Roberrt (2020), was a box office hit and received a positive response. This track record has raised anticipation of the duo’s next project.  The first-look image of the D56, which is said to be based on true incidents, features a dog protecting a flock of sheep. The commercial entertainer headlined is said to have a relevant message to society.

 “The dog considers protection as its prime duty and the sacrifices it takes to protect the sheep represent its selfless nature,” explains Tharun. The makers, who are in the process of finalising the cast and technical crew have planned the first schedule in Bengaluru. The team will be later heading to Hyderabad, where they will be covering some crucial portions.

Meanwhile, Darshan’s Kranti, which is almost through with shooting, is currently in the post-production stage and will be released this year.
