Filmmaker Sekhar Kammula is considering actress Sai Pallavi for his upcoming yet-untitled Telugu film with Varun Tej, if sources are anything to go by.
"Pallavi has been approached but she's yet to officially sign on the dotted line. Having recently graduated as a doctor, Pallavi is ready to take up acting full-time. Hence, offers have started pouring in," a source from the film's unit told IANS.
Kammula's project, which is about an NRI falling in love with a girl from Telangana, is expected to go on the floors from August or September.
Having made her cinematic debut with Malayalam blockbuster "Premam" last year, Pallavi has also worked in Malayalam film "Kali".
If Pallavi signs the project, it will mark her Telugu debut.
Dil Raju will bankroll the film.
