Akash Thosar who shot to instant fame in the Marathi blockbuster Sairat is all set to be seen in another film. After featuring in the biggest hit of Marathi cinema of all times, he teams up with Mahesh Manjrekar the maker of Natasamrat the second-biggest Marathi hit of all times.

The film entitled F.U is a youth-oriented Marathi film which also stars Mahesh Manjrekar's son Satya. The film is being shot in various parts of Maharashtra under heavy security bandobast because of Thosar's sudden popularity.

"The F.U team has tried its best to keep Thosar's presence in the cast a secret. But the secret is out. Everywhere crowds of hundreds gather to get a glimpse of Thosar. They mob him incessantly for selfies. Shooting with Thosar has become a problem," says a source from the unit.

Director Mahesh Manjrekar says this is a film about the young. "The title says it all. The F.U is self-explanatory. However for the censor board it stands for 'Fun Unlimited'. We don't want trouble."
