Chennai, Sep 21: Best known for his work in Tamil films such as \"Poriyaalan\" and \"Vil Ambu\", actor Harish Kalyan is gearing up for his Telugu debut with a modern-day love story. The yet-untitled project will be directed by Pattabhi.

\"It\'s a contemporary love story. I play a guy who gets a kick out of small things he does. It\'s an interesting role and quite contrary to what I\'ve done in Tamil so far,\" Harish, who will start shooting for the project from month-end, told IANS.

Excited about venturing into a new industry, Harish said he is keen on learning the language and exploring a variety of roles.

Presented by Suresh Babu and co-produced by Anand Ranga, the film also marks the debut of the leading lady Pooja Doshi.

Sai Ronak plays the second lead.
