First look of Naga Chaitanya in Telugu remake of 'Premam'

The first look of Naga Chaitanya in the Telugu remake of the superhit Malayalam film Premam was released today. The original film featured Nivin Pauly and three actresses— Anupama Parmeswaran, Sai Pallavi and Madonna Sebastian.

The Telugu version of the film will see Naga Chaitanya step into Nivin Pauly's shoes. Shruti Haasan has been roped in for Sai Pallavi's role while Anupama and Madonna have been brought in to reprise their original roles.

The Telugu film is being directed by Chandoo Mondeti and will be mostly shot in Vishakapatnam. The movie takes us through the life of Naga Chaitanya's character, from a schoolboy to college guy and then a businessman. At each stage, he falls in love with three different women and hence the title in Malayalam is Premam meaning 'love'. In Telugu, the title right now is Majnu.

The movie is said to be 50% complete and will release this summer.
