"We shot the film separately in Tamil and Telugu. The Tamil version has not been dubbed from Telugu as it is being speculated. Nayantara plays two different characters in both versions of the film. In Telugu, she plays a hacker, while in the Tamil version she plays a Tamil Brahmin," Kammula told IANS.

"Hyderabad becomes the backdrop of both the films because it adds a mystery element in the story. Moreover, the Tamil version is longer by four minutes vis-a-vis the Telugu version," he added.

Both versions of the film are slated for release worldwide Thursday.

The film also features Vaibhav Reddy, Harshvardhan Rane and Pasupathy in important roles.
