Ace producer Suresh Babu has entrusted director Teja with the responsibility of launching his younger son Abhiram Daggubati as a hero in Tollywood. The director initially wanted to rope in Krithi Shetty to play the female lead in Abhiram's debut film.

But as the actress has been demanding nearly 1 crore as remuneration, the makers have decided to get another heroine on board. Now, the makers are having remuneration issues with yet another actor Samuthirakani has who was approached to play a crucial role in the film.

He also reportedly asked for a fancy paycheck but the producers are not willing to offer him that amount as Sureshbabu doesn't want the budget to get increased.

We have to wait and see if the makers can convince Samuthirakani or will have to look for another option.

More details of the project are awaited.
