“For the first time, Kalyanram plays a badass; he plays an intelligent British secret agent, but for a greater cause. There’s a beautifully woven love story blended with mysterious elements,” added Naveen.

So why did he choose Kalyanram? “He’s a performer and someone who experiments with roles,” responds Naveen. “Moreover, Kalyanram garu naturally fit the costumes of the period drama and carries the look effortlessly. In fact, even he was excited when I narrated the story to him. After our costume trials, we felt vindicated about casting him in the role.”
