Plagued by constant delays, Akhil Akkineni's second film is long over due. While director Vikram Kumar is busy scouting locations, the makers are now said to have stuck over the film's female lead. Although reports had it that new entrant Megha Akash would be cast opposite Akhil, delay in the film's shoot said to have resulted in the actress' moving on with her other commitments.
Megha, who has already started working in Nithiin-Hanu Raghavapudi's film, has signed Ram Pothineni and director Kishore Tirumala film. While she has headed to a month-long US schedule of Nithiin film, she is expected to move onto Ram's film once she's back from the US.
Apparently, Akhil is now using all his Bollywood contacts. Buzz is that Akhil is now taking Karan Johar's help in roping in Alia Bhatt for the film. While it's still unclear whether Alia would take up the role, but it's said that Akhil is making a serious effort. Also, Nagarjuna said to have very good rapport with Mahesh Bhatt as the duo worked for a film (Criminal) earlier. Since Nag himself is producing the film on his home production, apparently, Nag is also in talks with Mahesh.
Given that Alia is quite busy with her lineup of films in Hindi, it has to be seen whether Akhil would able to rope in Alia or not.
