Master Bharath, the child comedian, is all set to play an adult in 'ABCD'. Directed by debutant Sanjeev, the remake will see the young actor play Allu Sirish's sidekick.

Rukshar Dhillon of 'Krishnarjuna Yuddham' fame is the heroine.

"Master Bharath will be seen in a full-length role as my best friend in 'ABCD'. He transitions from child artiste to a character actor with this film. Welcome, Bharath," the Mega hero today said. Earlier on Sunday, he had described him as an unusual choice and punned that he is a 'Master' entertainer.

Bharath was seen in rib-tickling roles in super-hits like 'Dookudu' and 'Ready'. He shot to fame with Mahesh Babu's 'Pokiri'. Known for his cute comic timing, Bharath has acted in films featuring quite a few big stars. 'Ready' and 'Bindaas' fetched him the prestigious Nandi Award.
