Speculations
were around even before the commencement
of Alwar about Ajit’s next venture
with the notable producer and Mohanlal’s
father in law Balaji – we carried
a report on this earlier.
Looks
like the project is taking shape and
Balaji’s son Suresh Balaji,
who is in the ad film industry for
quite some time, will produce the
movie. The venture will be co-produced
by the Mumbai based production company
Adlabs.
News has it that the project is based
on the Malayalam hit movie Kireedam
that is hailed as a classic film with
Mohanlal in the lead. The movie had
a sequel to it as well namely Chengol.
Does that mean Ajit is planning for
a remake of two movies – sequels
-which is as yet unseen in the industry?
Both ways it will most certainly be
a treat for Ajit’s fans.
Vijayanand,
who is the son of A L Alagappan and the
sibling of actor Udhaya, will direct the
movie. Vijay has been assisting the veteran
director Priyadarshan for some time before
turning his ways into ad filmmaking. The
shoots are reported to commence on December
15.
