Critically acclaimed Tamil actor Vijay Sethupathi has been roped in to play the lead antagonist in Sai Dharam Tej’s brother Vaisshnav Tej’s debut film Uppena. If the latest speculation is to be believed, Vijay Sethupathi walked out of the project and the real reasons haven’t been disclosed. This is sure a huge jolt for the team of Uppena.

Uppena is said to be a rustic love story set in the backdrop of Godavari. Buchi Babu, a protege of Sukumar is making his directorial debut and Mythri Movie Makers are on board as the producers. Uppena started rolling recently and will release during the end of this year.
