Superstar Mahesh Babu is busy wrapping up the shoot of Spyder which has been delayed by months. Directed by AR Murugadoss, the movie is said to be a Telugu, Tamil bilingual and will hit the screens in multiple languages (dubbed into Hindi and Malayalam). With the Telugu version business closed, the makers are now concentrated on the business of the Tamil version. The talks are on from the past few days and the latest update is that a leading distribution house acquired the rights for a record price of Rs 18 crores.
Spyder is the debut movie of Mahesh in Tamil and considering the market of AR Murugadoss, there has been stiff competition for the Tamil rights. Rakul Preet is the female lead and Harris Jayraj is the music composer. Produced by NV Prasad and Tagore Madhu, Spyder has been aimed for September 27th release during Dasara this year. Mahesh is said to be seen as an intelligence officer in Spyder which is said to be based on bio terrorism.
