The stage is set for the bilingual remake of Kannada superhit U-Turn. While Samantha is on board to reprise the role of a journalist played by Shraddha Srinath in the original, the latest is that Rahul Ravindran and Aadhi Pinisetty have been roped in for the crucial roles of a cop, and Samantha’s love interest and colleague respectively.
Confirming the news about his role, Rahul, who loved the Kannada mystery-thriller, shares, “The thing that excited me most about the film was the fact that Pawan, who directed the Kannada film, will be helming this as well. It’s going to be a blast working with Sam, who is one of my favourite people!”
While there’s no confirmation from Aadhi, sources close to the film unit reveal that the actor is as excited to be on board.
Notably, all the three actors are familiar names in both Telugu and Tamil cinema, which will be a huge advantage for the bilingual. Shooting of the film begins in February.
