Mega Prince Varun Tej scored a big hit with his July Release Fidaa that had the cute beauty Sai Pallavi, shouldering the film with her energetic debut performance. The Sekhar Kammula directorial was not just a comeback for him but also turned out to be a huge relief for Varun Tej, who had not a scored a single hit, despite starring in films of various genres like the family flick Mukunda, war flick Kanche by Krish and Puri Jagannath's action flick Loafer.
While Varun played an America residing NRI, who falls in love with the Telangana pilla played by Sai Pallavi in Fidaa, he's all set to play a London based lover boy in his upcoming flick. This romantic entertainer is helmed by Venky Atluri and will be shot in exotic locales of London. The first schedule of the film was wrapped up by the first week of August, Currently, the film's crew is scouting Locations, and the shoot for the next schedule is expected to begin and progress in full swing soon.
Tentatively titled Tholi Prema, after the memorable Pawan Kalyan - Keerthi Reddy romantic entertainer by Karunakaran(which was Pawan's first big blockbuster), this flick is expected to Surpass Fidaa's collections. Bankrolled by BVSN Prasad, the film has Raashi Khanna playing the romantic interest of Varun Tej and will have music by SS Thaman. Meanwhile, Fidaa will have its world television premiere on Dussehra in Star MAA.
