9 has elements of horror and psychological thriller but the core would be the father-son bond: Prithviraj

The eagerly awaited Prithviraj starrer 9 is gearing up to hit screens next month. The movie directed by Jenuse Mohamed is touted to be a first of its kind science-fiction attempt in Malayalam cinema. The trailer and promos have been highly promising. While there are several rumours about the movie’s exact genre, lead actor Prithviraj believes that it has elements of horror, psychological thriller and science fiction. But the real take away, according to him, would be the father-son bond. 9 has child actor Alok in a major role as Prithviraj’s son.

9 is special for Prithviraj for many reasons. He is venturing to production with this movie. His newly launched banner Prithviraj Productions is producing the movie jointly with Sony Pictures International Productions. He is said to be playing the role of a scientist in the movie. The cast also includes Prakash Raj, Mamta Mohandas, Wamiqa Gabbi, Tony Luke, Rahul Madhav and Adil Ibrahim.

9 is scheduled for a grand release on February 7.
