Shruti Haasan resumes shooting for Dulquer Salmaan-starrer 'Aakasam Lo Oka Tara'
Hyderabad, July 1
Actress Shruti Haasan has now resumed shooting for director Pavan Sadineni's eagerly awaited film 'Aakasam Lo Oka Tara', featuring actors Dulquer Salmaan and Satvika Veeravalli in the lead.
Sources said the actress had joined the latest schedule of the film, a period emotional drama that will be a blend of compelling storytelling, rich visuals, and powerful performances.
They point out that Shruti Haasan plays a contemporary girl who wants to live life on her own terms in the film.
For the unaware, the makers of the film had unveiled Shruti's look in the film on the occasion of her birthday in January this year.
Taking to its X timeline, well known production house Geetha Arts, which is presenting the film, shared the first look posters of the actress and wrote, "A trailblazer in every sense.... Team #AakasamLoOkaTara wishes @shrutihaasan a very Happy Birthday. And Meet a character that stands her ground and owns her space."
Directed by Pavan Sadineni, who is known for his inventive storytelling and distinct visual style, the film is being presented by the prestigious Geetha Arts and Swapna Cinema. 'Aakasamlo Oka Tara' is being produced by Sandeep Gunnam and Ramya Gunnam. Newcomer Satvika Veeravalli plays the female lead opposite Dulquer in this film in which Shruti Haasan will be playing a pivotal role.
In the first look posters that were unveiled, Shruti sported an intense, unvarnished look, with glasses framing a steady, downward gaze that reflected quiet intensity. The cigarette in her lips and the drifting smoke added a gritty layer to her character, hinting at emotional depth.
Sources say Shruti Haasan's character is going to play a decisive role in the film's narrative arc, with her entry steering the story into a new phase. Her mere appearance suggests her to be a force who brings sharp dimension and weight to the drama.
The film boasts of a strong technical team with GV Prakash Kumar scoring its music, Sujith Sarang handling its cinematography and Shwetha Sabu Cyril overseeing production design.
Currently in its final phase of production, 'Aakasamlo Oka Tara' is slated for a Pan-India release in Telugu, Tamil, Hindi, and Malayalam in the summer of 2026.

Finally some meaningful content coming from Tollywood. Period emotional drama with a strong female character written by someone who understands modern women. Shruti has really matured as an actress since her early days.
The technical team looks solid - GV Prakash for music and Sujith Sarang for cinematography is a winning combo. Hope the director delivers on his promise of "inventive storytelling" and not just more style over substance.
Happy to see Shruti back in the game. She's carved her own path without depending on her father's legacy. That first look poster with the cigarette though - hope they don't glorify smoking. Still, promising project overall.
Dulquer + Shruti = dream combo! Both have such natural screen presence. And Geetha Arts backing it? This is going to be special. Just hope they don't overdo the whole "contemporary girl" cliché. Give us something fresh please! ✨
Pan-India release in four languages? That's ambitious. Hope the director can balance commercial appeal with artistic vision. Tollywood has been churning out some excellent content lately, fingers crossed this continues the trend.
