Ram Pothineni has announced his next project, tentatively regarded as #RAPO23, which marks the 23rd film of his acting career.

The project has already generated curiosity as Ram is set to direct the film himself while also playing the lead role. With pre-production currently underway, the team is said to be in the process of finalizing the female lead.

According to industry buzz, Ram initially considered a few established actresses for the role. However, their remuneration demands reportedly prompted the makers to explore other options.

The latest name doing the rounds is Kayadu Lohar. The actress has been steadily gaining attention and is emerging as one of the busiest young talents in South cinema. She was recently seen in Vishwak Sen’s “Funky” and has also landed a prominent role opposite Nani in “The Paradise.”

If Kayadu comes on board for #RAPO23, it would further strengthen her growing lineup of high-profile projects. The actress has already built a strong fan following in Tamil cinema and is now making significant inroads into Telugu films as well.

An official announcement regarding the film’s heroine is still awaited.
