Actress and Bigg Boss 3 contestant Reshma Pasupuleti is reportedly in talks for Ajith’s next, directed by H Vinoth and produced by Boney Kapoor.
Sources close to the film say that the cast has not been finalised yet and an official announcement must be awaited. The film is likely to be launched with a pooja on August 29.
Reshma began her career as an anchor and starred with Ramya Krishnan in the TV serial Vamsam. In 2015, she acted in Masala Padam, and was later seen in many films including Velainu Vandhutta Vellaikaaran and Ko 2. She was part of Bigg Boss Season 3, and was known for maintaining her cool on the show. She was the fifth contestant to be evicted recently.
Meanwhile, director H Vinoth’s Ajith and Shraddha Srinath-starrer Nerkonda Paarvai is running to packed houses in theatres. At the premiere of the film in Singapore this month, producer Boney Kapoor announced that their next film, tentatively titled Thala 60, will go on floors by August end. He said further details will be announced after the launch.
