Notably, the trilingual film ‘Haathi Mere Saathi’ is bankrolled by Eros International. The film is a tribute to the 1971 classic film ‘Haathi Mere Saathi’ which starred Rajesh Khanna and Tanuja but nothing in terms of the script or content is similar. It works on the ideologies of elephants and humans being friends. Taking to the microblogging site, Rana Daggubati informed that he is currently shooting in Kerala.

The music of ‘Haathi Mere Saathi’ is being composed by Shantanu Moitra.

Interestingly Shriya Pilgaonkar made her Bollywood debut with ‘Fan’ starring Shah Rukh Khan. It was written and helmed by Maneesh Sharma and produced by Aditya Chopra through Yash Raj Films. In ‘Fan’ she played the role of Neha, a call centre girl and a good friend of Gaurav.
