Late director Sachy and Prithviraj were to team again for a movie titled Vilayath Buddha. With the unexpected demise of the acclaimed director, the movie was eventually dropped halfway. Now, the latest is that director Sachy's longtime associate Jayam Nambiar is taking over the project.
In a recent interview given to a leading daily, director Jayan said that it was Prithviraj, who suggested him to take over the project. Jointly scripted by GR Indugopan and Rajesh, the movie is expected to be bankrolled by Prithviraj's home banner, Prithviraj Productions.
The film is based on GR Indugopan’s novel ‘Vilayath Buddha’, that revolves around Bhaskaran master and smuggler student named Double Mohanan. Going by the novel, the movie is about a master who grows a sandalwood tree in his yard while his student challenges his teacher that he will cut down the tree.
Reportedly, Prithviraj Sukumaran is playing the role of a smuggler in the movie. Details regarding the rest of the cast is expected to be revealed soon and is expected to start rolling only after the pandemic.
Meanwhile, Prithviraj and Jayan Nambiar are working on another project which is a mythological film that will be shot completely in virtual production.
