Teja begins hunt for actors for his next

Known for introducing several newcomers through his films, filmmaker Dharma Teja is currently busy searching for fresh faces for his yet-untitled Telugu project, which will go on floors in December.

"This time I have opened the doors for as many aspiring actors to come forward and participate in the auditions for my next film. All aspiring actors could mail their details with portfolio to [email protected]," Teja told IANS.

"I have already completed the script and plan to start shooting by December, provided I finalize my cast. I'm more interested to work with newcomers because they are ready to learn and do exactly what you want them to do," he added.

Having directed over 10 films such as "Jayam" and "Nuvvu Nenu" in over a decade, Teja has managed to introduce at least one newcomer in almost all his films.

"I believe I have introduced maximum number of heroines to the industry. Luckily, all my heroines went on to be successful, earning a strong foothold in the industry," said the filmmaker, known for introducing successful actresses such as Reema Sen, Sada and Anita Hassanandani to Telugu film industry.
