Rakul Preet approached for Nithiin’s next

Actor Rakul Preet, who has been missing in action for over a year now in Telugu cinema, is reportedly on the lookout for some exciting projects. According to a source, the actor, who was last seen in Spyder, has been approached for the female lead's role in Nithiin's new film with director Chandrasekhar Yeleti.

“Yeleti gave Rakul a brief idea of the film and the actor has agreed to meet him in the first week of January for story discussion. If the script pleases her, she has no qualms about doing the film,” reveals a source.

Meanwhile, producer Suresh Babu had roped in Rakul for Venky Mama, while the actor was shooting for Suriya-starrer NGK. “Rakul has blocked 31 days for this film and is waiting for the shoot to commence as she doesn’t want to lose out on other films due to date clashes,” the source adds.

Mythri Movie Makers, which earlier bankrolled films such as Srimanthudu, Janatha Garage and Rangasthalam, will be producing the untitled Nithiin-starrer which is expected to go on floors early next year.
