Malayalam superstar Prithiviraj Sukumaran is venturing into Bollywood with the upcoming film 'Selfiee'. He is the producer of this Akshay Kumar and Emraan Hashmi starrer film which is a remake of Malayalam film 'Driving License' which starred Prithiviraj himself. The superstar was also present at the trailer launch event of 'Selfiee' where he talked about how special this project is for him.

He said, "As someone who was very closely associated with developing the original material, I kind of know from where it began, how it took the form of ‘Driving Licence’ and how it became ‘Selfiee’ today.”

Prithviraj continued, "I would give full credit to our director Raj for seeing the original and thinking that this film is possible from that source of material, which indeed requires a lot of talent especially to be able to tell a story differently but still retain the core elements of it and still make you feel what the original made you feel.”

Sharing how the idea of this film materialised, Sukumaran said, "One person I would love to pick out and thank is Akshay sir. He is the reason why this film happened, I called him one day and I told him I would like for you to watch one of my films because I believe it is a story that needs to be told everywhere in the country and the rest is history.”
