Ace director Puri Jagannath is busy writing script for his next film, which will feature Pawan Kalyan in the lead role. And he is doing it not in India, but in his favourite destination Bangkok.

'Bangkok is very close to the director's heart and he prefers penning scripts there. He and his team of assistant directors are currently camping in the exotic city to pen the story, screenplay and dialogues,' sources say.

The filmmaker is expected to return India by the end of this month. 'On his arrival, he will meet Pawan Kalyan to narrate the script. Once the actor approves, other preliminary work will be done and the film will hit the floors,' sources add.

The coming together of Pawan Kalyan and Puri Jagannath has created huge expectations in Kollywood. For, the director and the actor are known for their fire-brand films.
