Rashmika Mandanna is reportedly set to romance Nithin in 'Bheeshma'. Now, this film will be directed by Venky Kudumula of 'Chalo' fame.

It's said that Rashmika has okayed the project only because the director is Venky. While she must have liked the story and her character in the movie, she is biased towards the director for a reason. It was he who introduced her to Tollywood with this year's early hit, 'Chalo'.

Nithin, on the other hand, is looking at making a thorough comeback with this entertainer. He has delivered 'LIE', 'Chal Mohan Ranga' and 'Srinivasa Kalyanam', all duds, one after another, in less than a year.

Rashmika is regarded as a lucky charm. Let's hope for the best! More details about 'Bheeshma' are awaited.
