Sairam Shanker in Tulasiram film

Tulasiram will be directing a film with Sairam Shankar in the lead. After his blockbuster, 'Mantra', he has been waiting for the right banner to launch his second film.

Sairam Shankar was expected to do a film with top director Puri Jagannadh, his elder brother. But the project was dropped later. For the project, Sairam had worked very hard and had even develop six-pack abs so that when the film, was dropped, he was crest-fallen.

Anyway, there is no scope for complaints now, as Puri, under the banner Vaishno Academy, produces the film himself.
