Chennai: GV Prakash’s upcoming Kollywood movie Bruce Lee will be in the lines of Jigarthanda that is directed by Prashanth Pandiraj under Kenanya Films banner.
GV Prakash’s next project is titled as ‘Bruce Lee’ and the movie will be funded by Kenanya Films banner. Prakash himself will be scoring the music for this project. ‘Mundasupatti’ fame Shankar will handle the cinematography portion and Prashanth Pandiraj is making his debut as director.
He worked as assistant to Director Pandiraj earlier and the movie is still in hunt of a suitable female lead. Samantha and Nayantara were earlier said to be female leads but both of them denied rumours. The movie has strong supporting cast of actors like Balasaravanan, Mundasupatti Ramdoss, Motta Rajendran and Mansoor Ali Khan.
Now regarding the movie Director Prashanth says, “There is a reason behind the title ‘Brucelee’. GV Prakash’s character nick name is ‘Bruce Lee’ in the movie. Story behind the name forms crux of the plot. Film is a black comedy and it will be in lines of ‘Jigarthanda’. The movie will run on novelty of its screenplay and the makers are still looking for a suitable female lead. We will confirm the female lead soon. Shooting is progressing at a decent pace.”
