The news was confirmed by the film’s producer Rockline Venkatesh in an interview with Cinema Express.
Meanwhile, Darshan who is looking forward to the release of Roberrt has also associated himself with director Prakash Jayaram’s upcoming film. “My next focus will be on these two films. It all depends on how we take forward the shooting of Raja Veera Madakari Nayaka. It requires at least 500-600 crew members at a time on the sets, which is not feasible in the current situation. Rockline Venkatesh and Rajendra Singh Babu are chalking out a plan, and we will be discussing the shooting process. The scripting for Prakash’s film is also done, and we are ready to go on floors,” he said.
