In an industry known for being sentimental about titles, dates and even attire, Sharwanand and his director Merlapaka Gandhi have a double sentiment out there.

Yes, and it is in the very title of their forthcoming film, 'Express Raja'. If 'Express' in 'Express Raja' has something for the director, who debuted with 'Venkatadri Express', 'Raja' obviously comes with a ring of Sharwa's BO hit 'Run Raja Run'. Interestingly, for Sharwa, it has worked whether it is 'Raja' or 'Rani' (read 'Malli Malli Idi Rani Roju)! For Sharwa, will the double sentiment work?

The film stars Surabhi in the role of female lead.

Slated to release on Jan 14, the film has been certified a clean 'U'. It is produced by UV Creations.
