Actor Samantha Ruth Prabhu’s new project titled Yashoda went on floors on Monday, following a formal puja ceremony in Hyderabad. The makers state that the film has Samantha in an author-backed role and will target a pan-Indian release in five languages - Telugu, Tamil, Kannada, Malayalam and Hindi.
Yashoda will be directed by Hari and Harish and produced by Sivalenka Krishna Prasad, who backed Telugu films such as Aditya 369 and Sammohanam. Speaking at the launch, the producer stated that Yashoda is a new-age thriller: “Samantha gained pan-India attention with The Family Man 2.
