SS Rajamouli's asst to direct Sunil

Ace director SS Rajamouli's assistant Koti is ready to don the director's cap for the first time. He is all set to make his debut in Napoleon, which will star comedian Sunil in the main lead role.

Koti, who worked with SS Rajamouli for his recent flicks, has written the story and script for Napoleon. Ganesh Indukuri of Sanvi Productions was supposed to produce the fun-filled thriller but he dropped the movie due to some reasons. Now, producer Dil Raju has come forward to produce the film.

Actress Deeksha Seth has been roped in to play the female lead in Napoleon. The movie will take off in March. The other details about the film are yet to be revealed.

It may be recalled that SS Rajamouli has given a big break to Sunil, as a hero with Maryada Ramanna in 2010. But his recent flick Katha Screenplay Darsakatvam Appalaraju directed by Ram Gopal Varma has bombed at the box-office.
