Priyadarshan,
the
senior
filmmaker
is
all
set
to
don
the
director's
hat
once
again,
very
soon.
As
per
the
latest
updates,
Priyadarshan
is
teaming
up
with
young
talents
Shane
Nigam
and
Shine
Tom
Chacko
for
his
upcoming
directorial
venture.
The
filmmaker
is
also
planning
to
launch
his
home
production
banner
Four
Frames
with
the
untitled
project.
According
to
the
reports,
Shane
Nigam
is
playing
the
lead
role
in
the
movie,
which
is
scripted
by
Priyadarshan
himself.
Shine
Tom
Chacko,
on
the
other
hand,
is
said
to
be
playing
a
grey-shaded
role
in
the
untitled
venture.
Arjun
Ashokan,
Siddique,
Maniyanpilla
Raji,
Jonhy
Antony,
Appani
Sharath,
and
others
will
appear
in
the
supporting
roles.
The
makers
are
yet
to
finalise
the
female
lead
of
the
project,
which
is
said
to
be
a
comedy
thriller.
The
sources
close
to
the
project
suggest
that
Priyadarshan
and
his
team
are
planning
to
reveal
the
title
of
the
project,
which
is
bankrolled
by
Four
Frames
in
association
with
Badusha
Films.
The
untitled
venture
is
expected
to
start
rolling
in
September,
this
year.
Priyadarshan
is
currently
busy
with
the
pre-production
of
his
segment
in
the
upcoming
Netflix
anthology,
based
on
legendary
writer
MT
Vasudevan
Nair's
short
stories.
Mohanlal
is
playing
the
lead
role
in
the
senior
filmmaker's
segment,
which
is
based
on
the
popular
short
story
Olavum
Theeravum.
The
superstar
is
playing
the
central
character
Baappootti
in
the
film,
which
features
some
of
the
popular
faces
of
Malayalam
cinema
in
pivotal
roles.
Mohanlal-Priyadarshan
duo's
last
outing
Marakkar
Arabikadalinte
Simham
was
a
box
office
failure,
despite
receiving
multiple
awards
at
the
National
Film
Awards.
The
duo
was
later
planning
to
team
up
for
a
sports
drama,
which
features
the
superstar
in
the
role
of
a
wrestling
champion.
But
the
project
is
currently
put
on
the
backburner
owing
to
the
failure
of
Marakkar.
