Though his previous movie with superstar Mammootty,'Parunthu' sank in the box office without traces, director M Padmakumar is not in a mood to try another without a superstar. He has announced his new project in the title -'Shikar-The Hunt'.

Know who is donning the lead role? It is none other than Mohanlal, who will be for the first time with a Padmakumar movie. This new venture produced by Tetco Rajagopal will be scripted by S Sureshbabu.

Gireesh Puthencheery and M Jayachandran will be in charge of the music department of this movie. The composing work of the movie is presently on its way in Dubai.

M Padmakumar's previous movie except ‘Parunthu’ had good reviews but failed to make benefit when they were presented before the viewers. His first three films like Ammakilikoodu and Vaasthavam featured young star Prithviraj in the lead.
