Contrary to rumours, Kannada actor Upendra is not playing a baddie in the upcoming yet-untitled Telugu film featuring Allu Arjun. He will be seen in a role parallel to that of Arjun's.
"Upendra is playing an important role. He's not playing a baddie as is being speculated. He will be seen in a role parallel to Allu Arjun," a source from the film's unit told IANS.
The film is currently being shot here. The unit is expected to shift to Ooty for a week-long schedule soon.
Samantha Ruth Prabhu and Adah Sharma are playing the leading ladies in the film which marks Arjun's second collaboration with filmmaker Trivikram Srinivas after "Julayi".
