Sushanth bid his time after Kalidasu and Current failed to catapult him to the starry orbit. In retrospect, Sushanth feels that that was a wait worth it. "I am doing a good subject. GS Karthik (director) is handling the subject with aplomb. Adda will become a turning point for me," he says with confidence.

What is Adda all about? "It is purely a love story. It is targeted at youth audience," the director says, adding that he has been given the fullest possible freedom.

The film has been shot in Annapurna Studios, Ramoji Film City and the Hyderabad outskirts. In the coming days, for 25 days from Oct 1, the film will be shot in a specially erected set in Annapurna Studios. Later, two songs will be shot in Europe.
