Sivaji,
who
earned
recognition
as
an
artiste,
turned
a
producer
and
purchased
the
remake
rights
of
a
successful
Kannada
film
Taj
Mahal
and
is
making
it
in
Telugu
with
the
same
title
under
his
own
banner
Sri
Sivaji
Productions.
The
logo
of
the
film
was
launched
by
Dr
D
Ramanaidu
recently.
Speaking
on
the
occasion,
Ramanaidu
said,
“I
too
play
a
small
role
in
this
movie.
I
am
very
happy
that
Sivaji
has
chosen
a
title
with
which
I
produced
a
film
few
years
ago.
I
wish
this
film
too
would
be
a
big
hit
along
the
lines
of
its
Kannada
original."
Sivaji
says,
“I
never
expected
that
I
would
become
a
hero.
But
I
dreamt
of
becoming
famous
one
day
since
my
childhood.
Luck
favoured
me
and
I
became
a
star.
Likewise,
I
never
thought
of
becoming
a
producer.
But
I
was
impressed
with
this
Kannada
film
and
turned
a
producer.
I
am
introducing
Arun
Singaraju
as
director
through
this
movie
and
I
have
been
acquainted
with
him
since
I
was
doing
Indumati.
He
has
brought
out
the
film
well.
Shooting
part
is
complete
and
post-production
works
are
in
progress.
We
are
launching
the
audio
on
November
2."
Director
says,
“When
Sivaji
told
me
to
wield
the
megaphone
for
the
film,
I
was
shocked
and
was
afraid
of
taking
such
a
huge
responsibility.
But
he
encouraged
me
and
boosted
the
courage
in
me.
I
am
confident
that
the
film
would
be
the
career-best
for
Sivaji."
