Director Ayodhya Kumar of 'Minugurulu' fame has his second movie about to be started. The first look poster of his second movie titled 'Sri Lakshmi & 24 Kisses' has been unveiled. The film is touted to be a love story of depth with no trace of vulgarity.

The film will start rolling from next month. The director is planning to wrap up the movie in a short period to release it by end of the year. While his first movie Minugurulu dealt with a social issue, his second movie is going to be a complete commercial entertainer.
