Actor-politician Balakrishna's 99th Telugu film "Dictator" will be launched here on May 29 and its regular shooting will start from June 12.
"We're starting shoot from June 12. The plan is to release the film during Dussehra. The film will be shot in Hyderabad, Delhi and Europe on a lavish budget of about Rs.40 crore," the film's director Sriwass told IANS.
Nayantara has been paired with Balakrishna. This is the third time they have come together after "Simhaa" and "Sri Rama Rajyam".
Sriwass, who has two back-to-back hits such as "Lakshyam" and "Loukyam", will be eyeing a hat trick.
The film will be produced by Eros International and S.S. Thaman has been roped in to compose the tunes.
