Prince Mahesh Babu is all upbeat about his new movie 'The Businessman', which was launched yesterday (August 15) at the production house RR Movie Makers. Speaking about his characterization in the movie, Mahesh Babu says, “My character in the movie is terrific. The characterization is extraordinary and I was enthralled the moment I heard the script”. After Pokiri, Mahesh Babu and Puri Jagannath are coming together for another mass entertainer from the mafia backcloth. Observes Mahesh Babu, “Yes! I'm working with Puri for the second time after Pokiri and I was impressed when the story was narrated and thought that the movie has everything the audience expect from us”.

Ask director Puri Jagannath about this stylish movie to be made on a lavish budget, the director says, “The hero characterization is magnificent – perhaps the best ever so far in my career and we are eagerly waiting for this movie to kick off and that's our confidence on this subject”. The regular shooting will start from September 1 and release on January 12, 2012.
