Maheshbabu's brother G Rameshbabu who had earlier produced 'Arjun' with him is again making efforts to bring out a film with Maheshbabu in the lead under the direction of Y Surender Reddy on the banner of Krishna Productions.

It may be mentioned here that Maheshbabu has a super hit like 'Pokiri', while Surender Reddy had given a block buster called 'Athanokkade' and the producer Rameshbabu also had a hit film to his credit like 'Arjun'.

This successful combination is working together for 'Atithi' and the industry is eagerly waiting when the film would go to sets.

It is reliably learnt that this prestigious film would be formally launched on January 21 at Mumbai.

Noted heroine Amritha Rao is pairing up with Maheshbabu in this flick. According to the director and producer, the film would be an action flick and would be on par with the Prince's earlier film 'Pokiri'.
