The project is touted to be a devotional film and it will be set in the 17^th century. The Manam actor will be portraying the role of Baba Haathi Ram ji, a legendary devotee of Lord Venkateswara of Tirumala. Hence, a giant set resembling the 17th century Tirupati will be erected by the unit.

The film is expected to go on floors in May.
