Actor-composer GV Prakash Kumar, who has nearly half a dozen acting assignments in his kitty currently, has signed yet another new project which will mark the debut of Kamal Prakash. The yet-untitled project, tipped to be a fantasy horror comedy, also stars Raiza Wilson of Bigg Boss fame as the leading lady. Raiza was last seen in last year’s runaway sleeper hit Pyaar Prema Kadhal opposite Harish Kalyan. Auraa Cinemas is bankrolling the project which was officially launched in a customary ceremony on Sunday in Chennai.  

“GV Prakash has an impressive lineup of films this year and I am sure our film will be the icing on the cake for him. Raiza, high on her success of PPK, was very excited upon hearing the script and she immediately gave her nod. Guru Somasundaram plays the antagonist but it’s not a regular villain’s role. He plays a driver and his character has different shades. We are currently busy finalising a suitable title for the project. We plan to start shooting very soon,” Kamal said in a statement. The director added that the film’s story unfolds in a single during the hero’s road trip from Bangalore to his native place.  

Prakash, who currently awaits the release of films such as Jail, Watchman and 100% Kaadhal, doubles up as the film’s composer. Ramar, Sha Ra and Anand Raj will be seen playing crucial roles. S Venkatesh, who has worked in projects such as Tik Tik Tik, Miruthan and Kodi, has been roped in to crank the camera. Shiva of Theeran Adhigaaram Ondru fame is the editor.

It is also speculated that GV Prakash and Aishwarya Rajesh will be playing siblings in an upcoming flick. The entire story will be on these two characters and they will have a meaty role to play, add sources. Dhanasekar, an erstwhile associate of Mani Ratnam will be wielding the megaphone for this venture and Mani Ratnam has co-written the film.
