The era of washboard abs or commonly known six packs has now dawned upon Tollywood. Erstwhile, it was among the Bollywood people Hrithik Roshan, Sharukh Khan, Amir Khan and now in Telugu among the likes of Allu Arjun, Manchu Manoj, Vishal and Surya. It is now star hero Mahesh Babu's turn to join the six pack league of gentleman and flaunt his taut abs. But, instead of straining his tone on the abs, he is planning to build his biceps. An amalgamation of tight abs accompanied by a gorgeous biceps is sure a new trend engendered by Mahesh Babu.
His biceps are being put under stress to create a fresh feel in his looks for his upcoming movie in the direction of Trivikram Srinivas. Singanamala Ramesh produces this movie on Kanaka Ratna Movies banner.
Titled for the time being as 'Varudu', the movie launch was held in the month of May. Industry talk reveals that the on-going shoot will start from the 15th of November at Ramoji Film City. The cast and crew then start off to the arid deserts of Rajasthan for a prolonged schedule of 60 days for filming.
A few sequences that has a rural backdrop will be canned from Nov 22, in the locales of Pollachi, Kerala. Intro song choreographed by Raju Sundaram is decided to be canned in South Africa and Namibia from the 1st of February. Apart from this, two more songs will be done by Bollywood choreographers Saroj Khan and Vaibhav Marchant.
Mahesh Babu now drives a Taxi in this movie, as he plays the role of a taxi driver. The antagonist role is entrusted to Prakash Raj and Suneel plays Mahesh's buddy. The change script might adversely affect the title and this movie might be rechristened in awhile.
The filming is planned to be completed in the upcoming schedules in April and May and is slated for a July 18 release.
