'Savitri', produced by Daggubati Sureshbabu started shooting in Visakhapatnam on Sunday. Venkatesh is the hero of this film being directed by Teja.

Trisha is likely to be the heroine in this project. The Muhurtham shot was picturised after ceremonial Puja at Ramanaidu Studios in Visakhapatnam on Sunday.

Teja who rose to big league of directors with hits like 'Chitram', 'Jayam' et al had a huge downfall with 'Keka' which was a big disaster. Though he announced several ambitious projects thereafter, they never took off. It is after a gap of three years that Teja is going to direct a film again.

The movie will have continuous shoot from March 23rd. The technicians and other star cast of this film are yet to be finalised.
