Seems like a change in his name has brought luck to this actor. Yogish, who is changed to Yogi Pholgun will be testing the waters in the Telugu film industry and has signed his first flick.
The film is titled Monagadu and the muhurath has taken place. The same film will also be made in Kannada with Yogi’s father TP Siddaraju along with his friend, Narayana Murthy producing it.
“We have plans to title the Kannada film as Pralayathanka, but we are yet to get a green signal from Chamber to use the title. This is because the rights of the title is with actor-director Ravichandran. As of now, we have announced the project as production no. 16,” says Siddharaju.
The film is being directed by MM Venkat in Kannada as well. He comes in with an experience of 24 films and has been associated with directors such as SS Rajamouli.
“ We will have a few team members joining us from Karnataka, to assist the director,” the producer tells us, adding, “We had plans of launching Yogi in Tamil but Tollywood came by.
Since art doesn’t hold any language barrier, we are happy to see him launch in the Telugu industry.”
The film has three heroines and right now, Bhanu Sree Reddy , a contestant of Bigg Boss season 2 in Telugu has been roped in. “Since the film will be made in two languages, we are looking for heroines who can fit in with both langauges,” he shares.
The muhurath of the Kannada version is likely to take place in July and shooting is to start from August.
