The film will be made with great visual effects with the support of international technicians. My life-time wish to make the film ‘Rudramadevi’ is finally being fulfilled for which I’m very happy. I’m sure this movie which is being made as India’s first historical stereoscopic 3D film will impress the audience.”

I learnt horse riding and knife fighting also as it's essential for this role. ‘Rudramadevi’ will be a milestone film in my career. I’m very happy that my wish to act under Gunsekhar’s direction is finally getting fulfilled.”
