They have roped in Sobhitha Dhulipala as the female lead.Initially, there were reports that they wanted Pooja Hegde for the part. Instead, they chose Sobhitha, who has done a few films and also a web series in Hindi, as they wanted an actress known to the Hindi audiences too. Adivi Sesh and Sobhitha earlier worked together for the successful film, Goodachari.“It’s so amazing to reunite with @sobhitaD for #Major after our previous #Goodachari. This time, she is going to have her own individual story track in the film. She is going to be dynamite in a role with emotional depth. #Major is a story for all of India. Looking fwd to it,” (sic), says Adivi Sesh on Twitter.
