Hyderabad:
During
her
visit
to
the
city
in
2011,
Bollywood
actress
Sonakshi
Sinha
had
said
that
she
liked
Telugu
actor
Mahesh
Babu
very
much
and
she
would
be
ready
to
star
alongside
him
in
a
Telugu
movie.
Now,
the
time
has
come
to
fulfil
her
wish.
Yes!
Director
Krish
aka
Radhakrishna
Jagarlamudi
has
given
her
an
opportunity
to
work
with
Prince
in
his
upcoming
Tollywood
movie
Shivam.
It
was
recently
reported
that
after
the
release
of
Krishnam
Vande
Jagadgurum,
Krish
would
direct
Superstar
Mahesh
Babu
in
his
next
project,
which
is
expected
to
hit
the
floor
in
mid
of
2013.
The
latest
reports
suggest
that
he
has
already
approached
Sonakshi
Sinha
for
the
female
lead
in
Shivam.
The
actress
is
said
to
have
given
her
oral
consent
for
this
project.
She
is
expected
to
sign
it
officially
soon.
However,
Shivam
is
going
to
be
a
pure
commercial
entertainer,
which
will
be
directed
by
Krish
and
produced
by
Ashwini
Dutt
under
his
own
production
house.
Krish
has
almost
completed
the
scripting
work
for
the
movie.
The
formal
shooting
of
the
movie
is
likely
to
begin
in
2013
after
Mahesh
Babu
wraps
up
his
current
projects
like
Seethamma
Vakitlo
Sirimalle
Chettu
and
another
untitled
film
with
Sukumar.
