He opened up that Lijo Jose Pellissery went on to make that film in a fabulous manner, which was higher than the way in which he had visualised the movie in his mind.
More About City Of God
Well, City Of God was the second directorial venture of Lijo Jose Pellissery and the movie, which followed a non-linear narrative pattern, had its script penned by Babu Janardhanan. The film featured Prithviraj, Indrajith and a host of other actors in the lead roles.
The Other Project
Prithviraj had played the lead role in the movie Veetilekkulla Vazhi, directed by Dr K Biju. The film had won a lot of praises from the critics. The actor opened up that he also had bought the rights of the movie and had thought of making the film in another language. But later, he dropped the idea, since the movie had a story idea similar to the popular movie Bhajrangi Bhaijaan.
How Lucifer – The Movie Was Born
Prithviraj opened up that Lucifer was born on the sets of Tiyaan, in which Prithviraj and Murali Gopy had shared the screen space. The actor-director mentioned that they both used to share a lot of story ideas during the shoot and it was then that Murali Gopy narrated the story of Lucifer, which he had projected as a movie that he wishes to do with Mohanlal.
