Mohanlal,
the
complete
actor
of
Malayalam
cinema
is
all
set
to
make
his
directorial
debut
with
the
upcoming
fantasy
film,
Barroz.
The
shooting
of
the
highly
anticipated
movie
is
expected
to
go
on
floors
once
the
world
comes
back
to
normalcy.
Now,
the
latest
reports
suggest
that
veteran
cinematographer
Santhosh
Sivan
has
joined
the
Mohanlal
project.
If
the
reports
are
to
be
believed,
the
makers
have
roped
in
Santhosh
Sivan,
who
is
one
of
the
most
sought-after
cinematographers
of
the
Indian
film
industry,
to
crank
the
camera
for
Barroz.
However,
Mohanlal
and
his
team
have
been
remaining
tight-lipped
about
the
new
development.
In
that
case,
Barozz
will
mark
yet
another
collaboration
of
Mohanlal
and
Santhosh
Sivan,
who
had
earlier
joined
hands
for
several
iconic
films
including
Indrajaalam,
No.20
Madras
Mail,
Aham,
Yodha,
Pavithram,
Iruvar,
Vanaprastham,
and
so
on.
The
cast
and
crew
of
Barroz
is
getting
more
and
more
exciting
with
each
passing
day,
with
some
of
the
most
celebrated
talents
of
Indian
and
Western
cinema
joining
the
team.
As
reported
earlier,
Barroz
will
also
mark
the
entry
of
Vismaya
Mohanlal,
the
daughter
of
the
superstar
in
into
the
film
industry.
Vismaya
and
Revathy
Suresh,
the
elder
sister
of
popular
actress
Keerthy
Suresh,
are
all
set
to
join
Mohanlal's
directorial
debut
as
assistant
directors.
Reportedly,
Vismaya
is
not
interested
in
acting
but
is
planning
to
learn
filmmaking
and
try
a
hand
in
direction
someday.
Barroz
is
based
on
Jijo
Punnoose's
popular
novel
of
the
same
name.
Mohanlal,
the
director
of
the
project
himself
appears
as
the
titular
character
Barroz,
a
Portugal
mythical
figure
in
the
movie,
that
features
the
popular
American
child
artist
Shayla
McCaffrey,
Spanish
actors
Pas
Vega
and
Rafael
Amargo,
senior
Malayalam
actor
Prathap
Pothen,
and
so
on
in
the
pivotal
roles.
The
project
is
bankrolled
by
Aashirvad
Cinemas.
