Talking
to
IANS,
Gautham
spoke
about
his
upcoming
project
Basanti.
The
budding
actor
said,
"I
did
do
a
film
in
between
called
'Vaareva'
in
2010,
but
since
then
haven't
found
an
exciting
project.
I
didn't
want
to
sign
films
in
a
hurry
and
then
regret
if
they
didn't
do
well.
I
patiently
waited
for
an
interesting
film,
and
I
know
'Basanti'
is
definitely
one."
The
son
of
the
popular
comedian
added,
"It's
a
story
set
against
the
backdrop
of
a
college
and
events
that
pose
a
threat
to
education.
We
have
included
some
realistic
events
inspired
from
recent
college
incidents
to
ensure
that
the
film
stays
as
realistic
as
possible."
Director
Chaitanya,
who
was
lauded
for
his
last
outing
Banam,
has
made
Basanti
equally
good,
says
Gautham.
"I
don't
like
to
compare
my
film
with
Banam,
but
since
my
director's
work
was
appreciated
for
the
film,
I
can
confidently
say
Basanti
will
be
equally
good.
We
are
almost
done
with
the
film's
shooting
and
are
planning
to
release
the
film
by
December,"
said
Gautham.
Debutante
Alisha
Begum
has
been
paired
opposite
Gautham
in
the
film,
which
also
features
Sayaji
Shinde,
Tanikella
Bharani
and
others
in
important
roles.
