Nag Ashwin’s next a biopic on legendary actress Savitri

Director Nag Ashwin, who wowed critics and audiences alike with his Telugu directorial debut “Yevade Subramanyam”, will next helm a Telugu-Tamil bilingual biopic on the life of late legendary southern actress Savitri. “The film has been titled ‘Mahanati’, and it’ll be a magnum opus period film set in the golden era. With massive set pieces, the film will be unlike anything we’ve explored in Indian cinema. I’ve just finished the script and should finalise the cast soon,” Ashwin told.
