Looks like the project is taking shape and Balaji’s son Suresh Balaji, who is in the ad film industry for quite some time, will produce the movie. The venture will be co-produced by the Mumbai based production company Adlabs.
News has it that the project is based on the Malayalam hit movie Kireedam that is hailed as a classic film with Mohanlal in the lead. The movie had a sequel to it as well namely Chengol. Does that mean Ajit is planning for a remake of two movies – sequels -which is as yet unseen in the industry? Both ways it will most certainly be a treat for Ajit’s fans.
Vijayanand, who is the son of A L Alagappan and the sibling of actor Udhaya, will direct the movie. Vijay has been assisting the veteran director Priyadarshan for some time before turning his ways into ad filmmaking. The shoots are reported to commence on December 15.
