Senior actor Venkatesh, who is taking his sweet time to select films, has after a long gap, chosen to star in an out and out comedy film titled “Babu Bangaram”.

The film is currently on the floors, and it is most likely to hit the screens on June 1. Makers wanted to have a solo release for this film, and as no other big releases have locked June 1, producer Suryadevara Naga Vamsi feels it a perfect date to release his film.

Directed by Maruthi, the film features Venkatesh as a comic police officer. Venkatesh’s lucky mascot Nayanthara is playing the leading lady of this entertainer having music by Ghibran. Venkatesh hopes to score a big hit with this film.

After wrapping up this film, Venkatesh is likely to start work on the Telugu remakes of Madhavan’s “Saala Khadoos” and ‘Two Countries’.

Senior hero Venkatesh has taken a huge break after ‘Gopala Gopala’ to sign his next film. After hearing scripts from several directors and writers, Venky has finally given his consent for Maruthi, who has delivered a blockbuster like ‘Bhale Bhale Magadivoy.’

May titles are making rounds as a movie title of this film, we heard several titles about this movie. As per latest reports, this new film is titled ‘Babu Bangaram’. Rumor is that Venky will be playing a police officer in it. Top actress Nayanatara has been roped in to play leading lady of Venky. It is known that Nayanatara had earlier paired with Venky in hit films like ‘Lakshmi’ and ‘Tulasi.’

Makers are planning to take the film to sets soon and release in June 2016. Maruthi is currently giving finishing touches to the script.

Victory Venkatesh is all set to act in a new movie under the direction of Maruthi.

Director Maruthi, who has recently scored one of the biggest successes in the recent times and his biggest commercial hit with ‘Bhale Bhale Magadivoy’ starring Nani, is the hot favorite director now. Including Minister Ganta Srinivasa Rao, many NRIs are requesting him to make a film with them.

However, it is heard that Maruthi has chosen senior hero Venkatesh, whom he was supposed to direct in a political comedy titled ‘Radha’. The film even had its pooja ceremony, but the project was shelved due to plagiarism charges and after that, Venkatesh got busy with other projects.

With the latest success of Maruthi, even Venky is now showing interest to work with him. It has to be seen what kind of success Maruthi gives to Venkatesh?
