Much to the delight of fans, the first look of the actor in the film was unveiled by the makers on Rohit’s birthday on June 19.

The actor and debutant director is thrilled that his story is backed by Prashanth Neel. “I had presented four stories to him, of which, he felt this script written by Pradeep would fit me best. We fixed this script which was curated by him,” Rohit shares.
