It is being said that Mahesh Babu is quite keen on testing the detective thriller genre.

While there haven’t been many revelations about the casting, it seems that they are currently under process. Nivas, an assistant DOP of cinematographer Prasad Murella and Bahubali music director K M Keeravani’s son Kaala Bhairava may come on board. They are currently in the discussion stage for the same.

If reports are to be believed, the show will be extensively shot in Hyderabad in locations like Ramoji Film City and also the airport.
