A lot has been written on Vishal’s forthcoming Salute. Vishal is now seen as one of the top upcoming stars in the Tamil Filmdom and now he is hoping to firm up his position in Tollywood with this film. Vishal’s brother and producer Vikram Krishna is meticulously planning the film’s release in a grand way.

With high expectations and the pre-publicity blitzkrieg, he hopes that the film would take huge openings. Already 700 prints for both Tamil and Telugu versions are earmarked. This is the highest number of prints for a young hero in South India and also a record.

How did Nayanatara manage to slim down?

Nayantara is looking hot and rocking in her new slim avatar. How did she manage to slim down like this?

The secret behind Nayan's stunning looks is Vishal, her co-star in Salute. Since Vishal needed a 6 pack abs for his role in 'Salute', he built up his body under the guidance of a trainer Prasad. Impressed by Vishal's appearance, Nayantara asked him the secret behind his new looks, and he introduced her to Prasad.

Prasad helped her shape up to such an extent that she feels more energy flow as well as flexibility of movement and that is for all to see in 'Salute,' especially in the dance moves.

Nayantara's sex appeal in 'Salute' not forced

Salute' features Nayantara in a glamorous role and has reportedly performed in a steamy manner with Vishal in a song sequence. Ever since the movie's stills were published in the press there has been a lot of talk of the 'onscreen closeness' of the lead pair. Many even started wondering if Nayantara was forced to step on the glamour element.

When a section of the press voiced this to the director of the film Rajashekar, during a press meet held recently, he categorically denied forcing Nayantara into appearing sexy in the film.

'The story needed the female lead to be glamorous and I had made this point very clear when I narrated the story to her' said Rajashekar.

Nayantara plays a daring television journalist in the film and her relationship with a top cop adds on the fuel to her investigation as well as the police department's hunt for the baddies.

'Nayantara is a thorough professional and took it upon herself to do justice to the role' Rajashekar added.

The film is slated for release on August 15 as 'Sathyam' in Tamil and 'Salute' in Telugu. What started as a four-Crore budget went on to a whopping cost of 23 Crores. About 600 prints are being made available for the release.
