While the team is keeping plot details under wraps, industry reports suggests that the project might be titled Slum Dog, though an official confirmation is still pending.
#PuriSethupathi’s ensemble reportedly features Tabu in a crucial role, Samyuktha as the female lead, and Duniya Vijay and Brahmaji in key parts. The film is being jointly produced by Charmme Kaur under Puri Connectsand JB Narayana Rao Kondrolla of JB Motion Pictures.
After a string of lukewarm outings, Puri seems determined to deliver something fresh and fierce with #PuriSethupathi, billed as a pan-India project releasing in Telugu, Tamil, Hindi, Kannada, and Malayalam.
