Kabaddi team in ‘Seetimaarr’ and leading lady
Tamannaah
Bhatia will be seen as Jwala Reddy, the coach of Telangana Kabaddi team. ‘Hippi’ actress

Director Sampath Nandi said “After a long warm-up, solid stretches and power-packed practice, the cast and crew are eagerly looking forward to resuming the shooting of Seetimaarr from November 23. Besides being a sports-drama with an emotional plot, there are enough commercial elements in the film to satisfy the masses.”

To fit the bill as a Kabaddi coach, Tamannaah underwent a body transformation and got trained in the sport. Speaking about her part, she said “My role is a tribute of sorts to coaches like Pullela Gopichand, Ramakant Achrekar, Guru Hanuman, Satpal Singh and the likes who have turned things around for Indian sports.”
