Finally, Billa 2 shooting commenced at the Ramoji Film City in Hyderabad yesterday. Cameraman Ravi K Chandran confirmed that he met Billa 2’s director of photography RD Rajashekar at the film city when the shooting was in progress.

The film’s lead star Ajith, producer Suresh Balaji and director Chakri Toleti among others were at the Film City. Ravi K Chandran added that the film is being shot on the RED EPIC camera, as announced earlier.

Billa 2 has two heroines Huma Qureshi and Bruna Abdullah. Prabhu and Rahman who played important roles in Billa are also a part of this flick.

The shooting for Ajith's Billa 2 will commence this weekend in Hyderabad. Director Chakri Toleti of Unnaipol Oruvan fame will be directing the prequel to Billa.

Billa 2 will trace the origins of David Billa and the events that made him become one of the most dangerous criminals in the world.

The film will be very slick and hard hitting. Ajith has been working out and following a strict diet so that he will be able to pass for a 20 year old. His clothes and look for the film are being taken care off by a special team flown in from Hollywood. Huma Qureshi will be the heroine with Prabhu and Rahman reprising the same roles in the film.

Prabhu Solomon has zeroed in on his next hero! The director had announced that he will be directing a film that will revolve around elephants coming into villages and towns and creating havoc. Prabhu had done adequate research on this subject and was looking for a suitable hero.

He has now signed up debutant Vikram Prabhu, son of actor Prabhu to play the lead role. Vikram was also looking to enter the filmdom but was not satisfied with the scripts presented to him. When Prabhu Solomon narrated this script he immediately agreed to sign on the dotted lines.

The director has said that Vikram Prabhu will be sent to Kerala for a special training on elephants. Lakshmi Menon will be Vikram Prabhu’s heroine in this untitled flick.
