Prithviraj
Sukumaran,
the
multi-faceted
talent
of
Malayalam
cinema
is
joining
hands
with
hitmaker
Alphonse
Puthren
for
the
upcoming
project
Gold.
The
movie,
which
is
touted
to
be
a
comedy
thriller
is
currently
in
the
final
stage
of
its
post-production.
The
sources
close
to
the
Prithviraj
Sukumaran-Alphonse
Puthren
project
have
now
revealed
a
major
update.
As
per
the
latest
reports,
the
team
has
wrapped
up
the
dubbing
works
of
Gold
on
February
16,
Wednesday.
The
update
was
officially
confirmed
after
a
picture
of
leading
man
Prithviraj
Sukumaran
and
director
Alphonse
Puthren
went
viral
on
social
media.
If
the
reports
are
to
be
believed,
the
makers
are
now
planning
to
drop
the
much-awaited
Gold
official
teaser,
very
soon.
The
comedy
thriller,
which
marks
Prithviraj
Sukumaran's
first
onscreen
collaboration
with
director
Alphonse
Puthren,
went
on
floors
by
mid-2021.
According
to
director
Alphonse,
Gold
is
not
like
his
previous
works
Neram
or
Premam,
but
it
is
an
entirely
different
film.
The
director
revealed
that
the
Prithviraj
Sukumaran-starrer
will
have
2-3
songs
and
some
nicely
conceived
comedy,
and
has
nothing
new
to
offer
just
like
his
previous
films.
Nayanthara,
the
lady
superstar
of
South
Indian
cinema
is
appearing
as
the
female
lead
in
Gold.
The
Alphonse
Puthren
directorial
thus
marks
the
second
on-screen
collaboration
of
Nayanthara
and
Prithviraj
Sukumaran,
who
had
earlier
appeared
together
in
a
special
song
number
in
the
biggest
multi-starrer
of
the
industry,
Twenty-20.
Gold
will
feature
an
extensive
star
cast
including
Krishna
Shankar,
Shabareesh
Varma,
Mallika
Sukumaran,
Thesni
Khan,
and
others.
The
Prithviraj
Sukumaran-starrer
is
bankrolled
by
Supriya
Menon
and
Listin
Stephen
under
the
banners
Prithviraj
Productions
and
Magic
Frames.
As
per
the
reports,
the
Prithviraj
Sukumaran-Nayanthara
starrer
is
slated
to
get
a
theatrical
release
by
mid-2022.
