Megastar Chiranjeevi's much awaited 150th film, which has been tentatively titled Kathilantodu, will be officially launched on Thursday in Hyderabad.

An official remake of Tamil blockbuster Kaththi, the film features Chiranjeevi in dual roles. It's after months of delay that the project is finally taking off, and the makers are planning to release it next year. 

To be helped by V V Vinayak, the project will mark the debut of Ram Charan as a producer. In fact, it was Charan who saw the original and felt it'd be apt for his father and subsequently convinced him to be part of the project.

While the rest of the cast is yet to be finalized, it is learnt that Jagapathi Babu will be playing the antagonist. Devi Sri Prasad has been roped in to compose the tunes.
