Actor Janhvi Kapoor has booked her second Telugu project in RRR star Ram Charan's 16th film, the makers on Wednesday said. Tentatively called RC16, the film is being directed by Buchi Babu Sana.
Production house Mythri Movie Makers made the announcement on the occasion of Jahnvi's 27th birthday.
Billed as a “pan-India entertainer”, RC16 is produced by Vriddhi Cinemas and Sukumar Writings, owned by Pushpa director Sukumar. Mythri Movie Makers, the banner behind hit films such as Ram Charan’s Rangasthalam, Upenna, and Pushpa: The Rise, will present the project.
While details regarding rest and crew remain unknown at the moment, the team had previously announced that the film will have music composed by Oscar-winning music composer AR Rahman.
Notably, Janhvi is set to make her Telugu cinema debut with Devara opposite Jr NTR, who also starred in SS Rajamouli’s RRR. The Koratala Siva directorial is set to release in October. Janhvi’s upcoming projects also include Mr and Mrs Mahi, Ulajh, and Sunny Sanskari Ki Tulsi Kumari.
National Press Day (November 16) was last week, and, as an entertainment journalist, I decided to base this column on a topic that is as personal as it is relevant — films on journalism and journalists. Journalism’s evolution has been depicted throughout the last 100-odd years thanks to pop culture, and the life and work of journalists have made for a wealth of memorable cinema.
