As revealed by a few pictures now circulating on social media, Shiva Rajkumar recently met with filmmaker R Jai to discuss the period film. Reportedly, the mega pan-Indian project is being backed by R. Keshav of Bindya Productions who recently bankrolled Chandan Shetty's Laka Laka Lamborghini video single (also featuring Rachita Ram).

The same reports also suggest that the exact shooting schedule of the film is unclear at the moment, considering Shivanna's other commitments such as 'Nee Sigoovaregu' and 'Vedha'. The script pooja, however, is to take place sometime this week with the film getting launched in February.

'Nee Sigoovaregu' will see Shiva Rajkumar don an army officer's uniform while Telugu/Punjabi actress Mehreen Pirzada makes her Kannada debut. Directed by Ram Dhulipadi, the film will also mark popular singer

's acting debut with senior actors Sadhu Kokila, Sampath, and Nassar playing key roles. 'Vedha', on the other hand, will be Shiva Rajkumar's landmark 125th film and fourth collaboration with director-choreographer
