Nitin and Ileana to spice up Mirchi

Upcoming action hero Nitin's new film opposite leading actress Ileana is likely to be titled Mirchi. Directed by Paruchuri Murali and produced by G. Venkataramana under the banner of Sri Spectra Media, the film is progressing at a brisk pace in Hyderabad.

Nitin and Ileana come together for the first time with this film, which has already completed 40% of its shooting. The crew is now getting ready to begin their next schedule from March 1 to April 3 in Tunisia and Dubai. Nitin is presented in an action-oriented role with some lover boy features, while Ileana has a very special performance-oriented role.

The director said, "Nitin is taking special care for the movie. Moreover, the chemistry between Nitin and Ileana is encouraging though both of them come together for the first time. Definitely our film would be very different from my earlier films like Nee Sneham, Pedababu and Andhrudu. I am ensuring that the film is an out-and-out entertainer."

Tanikella Bharani, M.S. Narayana, Sunil, Suman Shetty, Ramaprabha and Hema are the supporting actors. Music is by Mani Sharma and dialogues are by Ramesh Gopi. Surender Reddy is the cinematographer. Story and screenplay are by the director himself. A. Sathish is the executive producer. Launched in October 2008 in a very low-key manner with no media people present, the film suffered a setback when Ileana suffered a minor injury during the shooting and was forced to rest, throwing the shooting schedule into disarray.
