Sai Dharam Tej and Mehreen Kaur Pirzada starrer new film Jawan to be directed by BVS Ravi and produced by Krishna under Arunachal Creations Banner has been launched today with a formal pooja ceremony. NTR sounded the clapboard, while Koratala Siva switched on camera and VV Vinayak directed the first shot. Financier Satte Rangaiah also participated in the pooja ceremony.

While speaking on the occasion, director BVS Ravi said, “Though title is Jawan, the film won’t have any connections with ‘Jawans’ (military persons). When a middle class family is in troubles, it needs a young guy to set things. Our hero has such qualities. Intikokadu is caption of our film. Like how Jawan is essential for our country, young guys with such attitude is necessary for every family. It’s a purely family drama film. Thaman has given wonderful music. Regular shooting of the film starts from March.”

Interim, Sai Dhram Tej’s upcoming film Winner is slated for release on February 24th.
