Director Puri Jagannath entered Bollywood with the Amitabh Bachchan starrer Buddha Hoga Tera Baap in 2011. Now the buzz is that the director plans to settle down in Mumbai, much like the other South Indian director to have taken B-town by storm, Prabhu Deva.

Our sources reveal that Puri is house hunting in and around Mumbai’s Lokhandwala area. His current line-up includes directing two films for N.R. Pachsia, the producer of Son of Sardar, and the remakes of two South Indian blockbusters.

On being contacted, Puri says, “Right now I am in Hyderabad shooting for Iddarammayi-latho. Yes, I have signed two films with Babloo Pachsia; they are the remakes of Business-man and Ammaananna.”

For the past four years, he has been renting a flat in Andheri and has been shuttling between the two cities.
