Srujan Lokesh, Meghana Raj's next based on mobile phone addiction

With people glued to their mobile screens for hours together, director Madhuchandra decided to base his next film on the subject of de-addiction from phones. “It is the need of the hour,” says the director, who is yet to title the film. 

Starring Srujan Lokesh and Meghana Raj in the leads, the film is through with 50 per cent of the shoot. Simultaneously, discussions are on to find a catchy title that appeals to all age groups.

The film also features popular standup comic, Sudha Baragur, in a pivotal role, along with Achyuth Kumar. “For our film, we plan to create a de-addiction centre at Shathayu, Doddabalapur, where major portions of the film will be shot,” says Madhuchandra.

Ravindranath, who has worked in SS Rajamouli’s Baahubali is the film’s DoP, and Shamanth Nag will be composing the music.
