A
few
weeks
ago,
we
had
reported
that
director
Nagashekar
will
be
directing
the
remake
of
Kannada
blockbuster
Love
Mocktail
in
Telugu.
The
Tollywood
remake
will
star
Satyadev
Kancharana
and
Tamannaah
in
the
lead
roles.
Titled
as
Gurthundha
Seethakalam,
fans
were
curious
to
know
when
will
the
team
start
shooting
for
the
same.
And
guess
what,
the
makers
finally
started
shooting
Love
Mocktail's
Telugu
remake
in
Hyderabad.
Today
(August
28),
the
makers
of
Gurthundha
Seethakalam
conducted
a
puja
ahead
of
the
first
shoot
of
the
film.
The
lead
actor
of
the
film,
Satyadev
started
shooting
for
the
film,
but
sadly,
actress
Tamannaah
couldn't
attend
the
event.
For
the
unversed,
Tamannaah's
parents
have
tested
positive
for
COVID-19
on
August
26.
The
actress
had
informed
the
same
on
social
media.
Hence,
she
couldn't
attend
the
first
day
of
shooting
in
Hyderabad.
However,
fans
are
praying
for
her
parents'
speedy
recovery
and
hoping
to
see
her
soon
on
the
sets
of
Gurthundha
Seethakalam.
Talking
about
the
first
day's
shooting
of
Gurthundha
Seethakalam,
the
photos
from
the
puja
ceremony
went
viral
on
social
media.
In
the
photos,
Satyadev
can
be
seen
sporting
long
hair
with
a
beard.
The
event
was
attended
by
other
crew
members
also.
Produced
by
Bhavna
Ravi,
Kala
Bhairava
will
handle
the
music
department
of
the
film.
On
a
related
note,
Darling
Krishna
and
Milana
Nagaraj-starrer
Love
Mocktail
was
released
on
January
31,
2020.
The
romantic-drama
turned
out
to
be
a
surprise
package
for
all,
and
become
a
blockbuster
despite
being
promoted
on
a
low
scale.
The
film
caught
everyone's
attention
and
fans
hope
the
Telugu
remake
will
do
justice
to
the
iconic
film.
