He started shooting for his upcoming movie Katamrayudu from September and the movie has been planned to wrap up by the end of 2016. Dolly is directing this family entertainer and the shoot of the film has been delayed several times due to many unexpected and undisclosed reasons. Shruti Haasan is the female lead and Anup Rubens is composing the music.

The makers recently wrapped up a major schedule in Pollachi after which the entire movie unit returned back to Hyderabad. The makers are in plans to wrap up the shoot at the earliest as the movie has been aimed for Ugadi 2017 release.
