Upendra promises a treat for fans

After a gap of 10 years, Kannada superstar Upendra is currently shooting his eighth directorial venture tentatively titled Symbol, which was launched in Bangalore last month. Starring reigning queen Nayantara in the lead role, the film is touted to be a visual treat for all Upendra fans in Tamil, Telugu and Kannada.

"I am introducing 20 new artists in the film. The audition itself was most exciting. Some of them will be seen in all the three languages. If I can prove to all of you that I have made efforts to present a different film, it would be a great victory for me," he said.

"We will be shooting for more than 100 days. Some portions will be re-shot for the Telugu and Tamil versions with a particular set of artists belonging to the Telugu and Tamil film industries," he added.

The director has not yet finalised the music director but said he plans to select one who would be acceptable to audiences in all the three languages. The film is made by Rockline Venkatesh under the banner of Rockline.
