First south Indian film by Nana Patekar - Linguswamy
Director Linguswamy said, “Bheema subjected is okayed in the first sitting itself by the producer and hero. This film is an action based film. Nana Patekar who said no to many South Indian film offers in the past has agreed to do this film because Vikram personally convinced Nana Patekar in Mumbai. Nana Patekar feels that his voice is main strength behind his success wants to dub his own voice in Telugu and Tamil.”
Bheema is a violent commercial action film - Vikram
Hero Vikram said, “Dhool produced by AM Ratnam was a huge hit. I am doing a promising character in Bheema. Generally we do not get much scope for performance in action oriented films. But in Bheema there is very good scope for histrionics. Youth are going to like this film. I took a gap of six months of get my body and appearance suited for Bheema role. Bheema is going to be a violent commercial action film taken in a stylish way. Nana Patekar is doing a vital character in this film.”
Actor Shafi said, “I was thrilled when Vikram called me up and offered me this role. I saw Pitamagan and Aparichitudu and became a fan of Vikram. I am doing an interesting role in this film.”
