It was last year Superstar Mohanlal announced his son`s hero debut in Malayalam Cinema. Touted to be an action thriller, this upcoming movie will be directed by Jeethu Joseph and produced by Antony Perumbavoor under the banner of Ashirvad Cinemas.

Ever since the announcement was made by the complete actor, audiences have been eagerly waiting for updates on the Pranav Mohanlal starrer. Now, we hear that the film's director Jeethu Joseph is all set to begin the pre-production and had completed the movie's first draft.

In a recent interview, Jeethu has revealed that the yet-to-be titled film will start rolling by the second half of the year. He also added that the movie which is on the lines of Jeethu Joseph`s superhit movie Memories will be majorly shot outside Kerala. Meanwhile, Pranav is currently prepping up for the role by getting trained for Parkour for the film.

Pranav who shares a personal relationship with Jeethu, had earlier worked with the director as his assistant for the Tamil film Papanasham, which had Kamal Hassan in the lead and then in Life of Josutty, starring Dileep in the lead.
