Sharwanand's 'Maha Samudram', directed by 'RX 100' fame Ajay Bhupati, has got a new lead actor on board. It's Siddharth, the 'Bommarillu' actor, who has stayed away from straight Telugu films for years. The Telugu-Tamil bilingual is going to be his comeback Tollywood flick.

Announcing his name on Friday, AK Entertainments said that Siddharth was looking for an appropriate script to make a comeback. With him loving Ajay's script, he gave the nod. "The duo will be sharing screen space in the powerful script penned by Ajay Bhupati," producer Anil Sunkara added.

What is the film's genre? "It's an intense love and action drama. We are going to make more sensational and surprise announcements every week regarding the project," the makers added.

It's interesting that 'MS' has been billed as a multi-starrer!
