Putting an end to speculations, the makers of the Telugu remake of Bollywood hit, Andhadhun, today announced the casting details. Tamannaah Bhatia would reprise the role played by Tabu in the original thriller that has Nithin in the lead role.

Ramya Krishna, Nadia, Anasuya, and other actresses were approached for this role but finally, the makers have signed Tamannaah.
