Mahesh Babu is reportedly undergoing training in unconventional action moves from experts who have arrived from Italy. The intensive homework has a purpose: the 'Maharshi' superstar wants to be fit and battle-ready for his role in 'Sarileru Neekevvaru'. The actor will be seen as a perfectionist soldier in the film, whose first schedule will commence in the first week of July.

The Italian trainers are making sure that Mahesh is on the right diet. Director Anil Ravipudi will show the actor in a never-seen-before, suave avatar in the big-ticket entertainer.

Meanwhile, Vijayashanti has said that her role in 'SN' will be a positive one.

Starring Rashmika Mandanna as the heroine, this Dil Raju-Anil Sunkara production has Jagapathi Babu in a crucial role. Music is by Devi Sri Prasad.
