Actor Nikhil’s upcoming film Mudra is an investigative thriller based on true events. Lavanya Tripati is playing the female lead in this film directed by TN Santosh. The lead pair will be seen as journalists in this film.
As the story focuses on journalism, a major portion of the shoot had to be done in a TV studio. Due to budget constraints, the makers decided to use a not-so-popular channel TV99 for the film at that time. Meanwhile, Pawan Kalyan’s team acquired TV99 for promoting Janasena party. As Mudra was shot completely with the logos of TV99, Pawan’s team felt that many would treat that the film is supporting Janasena. So, they changed the name to 99TV to avoid controversies. However, they are still concerned that people would think that it as a partisan of Janasena.
Meanwhile, team Mudra has assertively clarified that the film has nothing to do with any political party. The shooting formalities are nearing completion and the makers have locked December 28th as the release date.
