During the course of his decade-long acting career, Dulquer Salmaan has played the lead in various romantic movies in different languages. However, the actor is willing to take a break from the romance genre. During a recent event, the actor revealed Sita Ramam will be his last romantic film and also opened up on the reason behind signing the film. 

Dulquer Salmaan said, "I was beginning to think I should not do any more romantic movies as I’m being called a romantic hero. When Hanu sir came to me with this story, I couldn’t refuse." "This story was so beautiful, so amazing and so epic, so timeless and so classic, I was like, ‘ok, one last romantic movie.’ One last love story, one for the ages," he added.

Touted to be a romance drama, Sita Ramam will see Dulquer Salmaan, Mrunal Thakur and Rashmika Mandanna play lead roles. The film is set against the war-torn backdrop of the 1960s. Helmed by Hanu Raghavapudi, who is also the writer, the movie is set to hit the theatres on August 5.
