"We are planning to launch the film in the second week of June, while the regular shooting will start from the first week of July. I have roped in Kanika after I saw her performance in the Hindi film (Agneepath)," the film's director Ramesh told IANS.
"She may be a north Indian, but she has the features of a south Indian. This is one of the reasons why I was hell-bent on casting her," he added.
In Agneepath, Kanika played Shiksha, who grows up unaware of her brother's existence.The search for rest of the cast is on for the yet-to-be-titled film, which will be jointly produced by C.H Pratap and Pratap.
Meanwhile, Kanika has already acted in a Tamil film titled Avikumar. She is also awaiting the release of her Telugu debut film Boy Meets Girl.
