One of the most promising young directors of Mollywood, M.Padmakumar had long been known as a Prithivraj specialist. His first three films like 'Ammakilikoodu’, ‘Vargam’, and ‘Vaasthavam’ featured Prithviraj in some of his best roles. The last of the trio did even bag him the state award for the best actor.

But now it seems that Padmakumar is planning to open a new career line, planning back to back films with super stars. The young director, an associate to Renjith, has already started shooting for his first film with a super star - the Mammootty starrer 'Parunthu'. Padmakumar is more than thrilled to present Mammookka in a role with negative shades, much different from the ones the star is up to, these days.

Padmakumar is expecting the film to do wonders in his careers, but it now seems that even before he completes the movie, his career seems to be on promising lines. The director has been offered two more projects, one with the other superstar of Malayalam, Mohanlal.

Renjith will write the scripts for this film which will be produced by Varnachithra Subair. The movie according to initial discussions will be an action based family drama. The other future projects of Padmakumar include one with new comers and another, again with Prithviraj.
