Ad filmmaker Biju Das is directing a horror comedy thriller titled ‘Leons’, which will have Dileesh Pothan and Hareesh Peradi in the lead roles. The movie set in the back drop of a campus will be made as a bilingual simultaneously in Malayalam and Tamil. It will be produced by Nisha Nair and Hari Govind under the banner of Nisha Creations.
