It is known that Energetic Star Ram Pothineni is teaming up with ace filmmaker Puri Jagannath for 'iSmart Shankar'. This is one of an interesting collaboration which is to be jointly produced by Puri and actress Charmee Kaur. Here's a small update on this massy commercial film. Read on.

ISmart Shankar will be officially launched on 23rd January in Hyderabad and principal photography will kick start from the following day (24th January). It's learnt that the makers are planning to release the film in May, this year. Meanwhile, the makers are yet to finalize on the lead actress of this film. Puri, who is short of a hit from a long time, seems to have fueled this script with a lot of mass elements and adequate entertainment. The first look motion poster of the film was a feeler of it. With a totally different look compared to his last films, Ram is appearing in a new avatar. 

Besides Puri, Ram Pothineni also is in need of a massive success as his previous projects Vunnadi Okkate Zindagi and Hello Guru Prema Kosame ended up an average grosser at the box-office.
