Things are happening fast as far as 'Biriyani' is concerned. Within days after he announced the project, director Venkat Prabhu has started the shooting. The film hit the floors after a pooja today.

Karthi Sivakumar and Richa Gangopadhyay play key roles in this movie, a romantic thriller loaded with humour. Music is by Yuvan Shankar Raja and this is his 100th film.

Major portions of the film will be shot in Chennai and Hyderabad. On the face of it, the film seems to be not-so high-budgeted.

According to Venkat Prabhu, this 'Biriyani' is for both vegetarians and non-vegetarians. And Richa feels so happy to be part of the flick. She says she missed an opportunity to work with Venkat Prabhu in Gambler. She is thrilled to team up with him for this film.
