In a solid way, it was Trivikram Srinivas' advice which enlightened Nithiin to try something different after 'A Aa'. "After 'A Aa' became such a big hit, I was confused as to what kind of movie. It's then that Trivikram Srinivas garu suggested to me that I shouldn't do a soft movie once again. It's then that I got some clarity," Nithiin says.

It's the sage advice of 'Matala Mantrikudu' that put the humble cook of 'A Aa' on the path of being a stylish 'awara' out to take on the empire of a menacing villain (played by Arjun). That's 'LIE' for you.

The pre-release buzz around the movie is pretty high. Hanu Raghavapudi, going by the performance of 'KVPG', is in full form. 14 Reels Entertainment is known to know the audience's pulse. Nithiin has been lucky, too.

With several factors going in its favour, 'LIE' should nail it at the Box Office. Watch this space on August 11!
