Sri Hari met the press to brief about his future moves on the occasion of his birthday today (Aug 15). He announced that he has signed a film with journalist Gavara Nagu. "Nagu narrated two stories (Maharshi and Manusunnodu) and to me in the past. Though I liked the subjects, they could not be materialized into a film because of some issues. When he narrated a third story, I was bowled over by his narration and immediately gave the nod," he said.

Nagu has previously directed a short film titled as Aishwarya, which was about the weakening family bonds in modern society, in 2005.

Before Nagu's film happens, he has three films lined up for release - Shiridi Sai, Yamaho Yama and Jagadguru Aadisankara. He is playing Lord Yama in Yamaho Yama, where he shares screen space with Sairam Shankar.
