After the not so encouraging responses that his new film 'The King and the Commissioner ' has met at the Box Office, director Shaji Kailas is getting ready to make another try at the Box office with a new movie 'Simhasanam' .This time apart from calling the shots, Shaji will be also trying a hand at scriptwriting. Shaji Kailas who had earlier penned the stories for the movies like "Kiluukkampetty' and "News' will be for the first time attempting the full scripts, as many of his dedicated writers like Rajesh Jayaraman, S N Swamy and Renji Panikkar failed to provide him with winning scripts.

Shaji has already kicked off the shoot for the movie at Palakkad which will have Prithviraj donning the lead character. Vandana and Aiswarya are the heroines of the movie which will also have Thilakan, Siddhique, Manianpillai Raju and Saikumar in other important roles. "Simhasanam' is produced by Chandrakumar in the banner of Malavika productions
