'V', starring Natural Star Nani and Sudheer Babu, will soon be shot in Manali. Its director, Mohankrishna Indraganti, is on a recce with his team. "An important sequence will be shot there," the makers say. This schedule comes weeks after a schedule in Thailand's Phuket.

Starring Nivetha Thomas and Aditi Rao Hydari in other important roles, this one might release this year itself. The 'Gang Leader' admittedly plays a bada$$ character for the first time in his career. The 'Sammohanam' actor had shaped up for the role before the film went on the floors. He is very positive about 'V'.

Produced by Dil Raju on Sri Venkateswara Creations, its music is by 'Sye Raa' musician Amit Trivedi and cinematographer PG Vinda. Editing is by Marthand K Venkatesh.
