First look video of Naga Chaitanya's next is out

As announced earlier, the makers of Naga Chaitanya’s upcoming film, tentatively referred to as NC 19, revealed the first look video of the film to commemorate its hero’s birthday on November 23. From the video, we can gather that Naga Chaitanya plays a youngster working in a gym. He is seen sweeping the gym and playing with the kids, giving the image of a happy-go-lucky youngster.

As the role demands, the hero is seen sporting a short haircut and a beard. In this film, Naga Chaitanya plays a Hyderabadi youngster and will be seen speaking the Telangana dialect, which is another first in his career. Sai Pallavi is playing the female lead in this dance-drama, which is directed by Sekhar Kammula.

On the film’s progress, we hear that the director intends to complete the film’s shooting in three schedules. Narayan Das K Narang and Puskur Ram Mohan Rao are bankrolling the project under their banner Asian Cinemas. On the commencement of the shooting, producer Ram Mohan Rao said that shooting began in Hyderabad on a specially constructed set and the next schedule was shot in a rural backdrop. He added that the shooting will be wrapped up after a long schedule in Hyderabad. Pavan, a product of AR Rahman's KM Music Conservatory, is composing music for this flick.

While this project is underway, Naga Chaitanya’s another film in the pipeline Venky Mama is also making brisk progress. The film is bankrolled jointly by Suresh Productions and Blue Planet Entertainment on a very big budget with Bobby aka KS Ravindra wielding the megaphone. Anup Rubens has been roped in to compose tunes for Venky Mama and Prasad Murella is cranking the camera. Raashi Khanna and Payal Rajput have been roped in to play the female leads and will be paired up with Naga Chaitanya and Venkatesh respectively.
