Speculations are rife that the first look and the teaser of Jr NTR-Puri Jagannadh's film "Nenorakam" (tentatively titled) will be released as a Diwali treat for fans.

NTR is currently busy shooting for the Puri directorial. After completing the first schedule, there was a delay in starting the next schedule. Recently, the film's shooting resumed and the team is reportedly working hard to complete it on time.

Buzz is that the film's first-look poster and the teaser will be released for Diwali. However, there is no official confirmation in this regard.

The film, touted to be a commercial entertainer, will apparently have NTR in a cop's role. It may be recalled that the actor was last seen donning the police officer's role in Srinu Vaitla's "Baadshah." It will be the second time he will be playing such a role in Puri Jagannadh's film.

Kajal Aggarwal plays the female lead opposite the young tiger of Telugu cinema. This is the third time that the actress is sharing screen space with NTR after "Brindavanam" and "Baadshah." Both the films turned out to be hits and it will be interesting if their upcoming project hits the jackpot once again.

 NTR is going through a tough phase with his last two films turning out to be box office duds. The actor's "Ramayya Vasthavayya" and "Rabhasa" carried out huge expectations, but they failed to live up to the hype. Although both the films took good openings, they could not sustain their business and fared poorly in their final run at the worldwide box office much to the disappointment of the fans.

They would be expecting the NTR-Puri film to work wonders at the box office. The actor-director duo has teamed up after several years when their last release "Andhrawala" hit the screens. It will be interesting to see if "Nenorakam" will be able to impress the audience.

The film is expected to hit the screens during Sankranti 2015. The NTR starrer might not have a solo release and is likely to clash with Pawan Kalyan-Venkatesh's "Gopala Gopala", which is also targeting a Sankranti release.

Vakkantham Vamsi is penning the script for "Nenorakam," while Bandla Ganesh is producing it under his Parameswara Art Productions banner. Buzz is that Anoop Rubens will be working on the soundtracks and Mani Sharma will be providing the background scores.
