Cinematographer-filmmaker
Santosh
Sivan,
who
is
busy
working
on
AR
Murugadoss's
yet-untitled
Tamil-Telugu
bilingual,
says
the
excitement
Mahesh
Babu's
presence
brings
to
a
set
is
beyond
belief.
The
makers
have
been
shooting
in
Chennai
for
nearly
three
weeks
now.
"The
amount
of
excitement
and
energy
the
presence
of
Mahesh
Babu
creates
in
Chennai
is
astonishing.
The
star
power
is
enormous.
We
have
shot
close
to
20
days
in
Chennai
with
some
major
portions
covered.
We
have
got
the
best
of
combination
that
will
give
this
film
a
great
avenue
to
explore
the
commercial
arena
to
a
greater
level," Sivan
said
in
a
statement.
Having
gone
on
the
floors
last
month
in
Hyderabad,
the
team
has
shifted
here
to
shoot
important
action
sequences
in
a
specially
erected
set
at
the
EVP
world.
In
the
film,
Mahesh
will
be
seen
as
an
intelligence
officer.
Rakul
Preet
Singh
plays
the
leading
lady.
The
film
marks
the
Telugu
acting
debut
of
actor-filmmaker
SJ
Suryah
in
the
role
of
an
antagonist.
