Top director Trivikram is all set to return back to work in July and he will direct Superstar Mahesh Babu in the film. He shares a close bonding with his co-director Satyam who passed away with Covid-19 recently. Trivikram promised to stand as a support for his family members after his demise. The top director moved ahead and he decided to relaunch Vashistha, the son of Satyam as the lead actor. Vashistha played the lead role in a film but it failed to make an impact.
Sithara Entertainments, the sister production house of Haarika and Hassine Creations is producing the remake of Kappela. Vishwak Sen was considered for the film but he deferred with the team because of the remuneration. The makers then approached Sidhu Jonnalagadda and the young actor even shot for the film. After the super success of DJ Tillu, Sidhu walked out of Kappela remake. Trivikram now finalized Vashishta to play one of the lead roles in the film. Arjun Das will be seen in the other lead role in the remake. Trivikram decided to relaunch Vashishta and is doing his bit for the family of his codirector Satyam.
