Cinematographer Nizar Shafi of 'Bhale Bhale Magadivoy' and 'Nenu Local' fame, is almost done with his directorial debut but for patch works and post-production tasks. Titled '7', it's an investigative thriller that revolves around seven characters, most of them female.

Shot in night effect majorly, the thriller features Regina Cassandra, Nandita Swetha ('Ekkadiki Pothavu Chinnavada' fame), Rahman (as a cop), Anisha Ambrose (recently seen in 'Ee Nagaraniki Emaindi'), Pujita Ponnada, Tridha Choudary (seen in 'Manasuku Nachindi'), Havish and Adithi Aarya. Hot scenes abound in a recently-released teaser.

Shot originally in Tamil, '7' will have a dubbed Telugu release. Chaitan Bharadwaj of 'RX 100' has composed the music. Shafi has cranked the camera, besides handling Additional Screenplay and Dialogues.
