Tanya in Jagapati Babu's film

After earning brownie points for her role in Appatlo Okadundevadu, Tanya Hope is making some good strides in Tollywood. After signing a film for which she’ll commence shooting in July, the Bengaluru-based actress has now signed Patel S.I.R, opposite Jagapati Babu.

Sharing more details about the role, an elated Tanya says, “I’m thrilled to be part of a film that gives me the opportunity to explore my acting. This is an author-backed role with different shades to it. I am currently undergoing a workshop for three hours a day to get my body language, dialogues and expressions for the role right. There’s also an element of suspense surrounding my character.”

Directed by Vasu Parimi, the action-drama will commence shooting next month. The makers have approached Bhavana to be the other leading lady, although she’s yet to give her confirmation.
