Mahesh Babu has clarified that he has not walked out of filmmaker Mani Ratnam’s yet-untitled upcoming Tamil-Telugu bilingual. He says the dates are being worked out and they plan to start shooting soon.

“Mani Ratnam project is very much on. Since I’m busy with multiple projects, my dates are being work out. There will be more clarity on this project when the official announcement will be made,” said Mahesh Babu.

Aishwarya Rai and Akkineni Nagarjuna are also to be part of this project, which is expected to go on floors soon.

While this will be the fourth time Aishwarya will collaborate with Mani after Iruva, Guru and Raavan, Nagarjuna will be working with auteur second time after Telugu drama ‘Geethanjali’.

This will be Mahesh’s first film with Mani Ratnam. Mahesh Babu is currently busy wrapping up Telugu actioner ‘Aagadu’.
