The Kollywood hunk Shaam shot to stardom kind of overnight. His performance in Kick was much appreciated and has showed him the kind of success that even Kollywood could not give. His last release in Tamil flopped but that has not affected his Tollywood career.
He has been signed up for Veedu Manavaade and Atu Itu in Telugu. Veedu Manavaade which will release in December this year has Mallika Kapoor pairing up with him and is directed by Netaji. Atu Itu is directed by Teja and is slated for a Feb 2010 release. It may be noted that he has also been roped in to play the cop in the Tamil remake of Kick.
