After working together in the superhit Jigel Rani song in the blockbuster film Rangasthalam, Ram and Pooja will share screen space yet again. But this time, the audience will see them do a lot more than just shake a leg together. The team made the announcement of the same on the occasion of Ugadi with a poster that is being received quite well and adding to the already existing buzz around the film. Ram Charan wished everyone a great start to the new year, this Ugadi.

Sharing the poster, Pooja wrote, "Here's the love of #Siddha - #Neelambari  Wishing you all a very #HappyUgadi. #Acharya"

Here's the love of #Siddha - #Neelambari
