Fahadh Faasil joins team Virus!

It is already known that director Aashiq Abu is making a movie based on the deadly Nipah outbreak that shook Kerala. The movie titled as ‘Virus’ has a stellar star cast comprising of Revathy, Tovino Thomas, Parvathy, Asif Ali, Rima Kallingal, Kalidas Jayaram, Soubin Shahir, Dileesh Pothan, Chemban Vinod Jose and Remya Nambeeshan. The latest we hear is that Fahadh Faasil will be playing a guest role in the movie. There are also reports about Kalidas opting out due to date issues, but it is yet to be confirmed.

Virus is scripted jointly by Muhsin Parari of ‘KL 10 Pathu’ fame and Suhas and Sharfu, the writers of ‘Varathan’. They are scripting the movie based on some real-life incidents that happened during the virus outbreak. Contrary to reports, the movie is not an anthology but has interconnected stories set all over Kerala. The makers are trying to tell the world a story about how the Malayali community stood united to tackle the virus. Nipah virus had took 17 lives in the state this year.

Virus has veteran actress Revathy playing the role of Health Minister KK Shailaja and Rima Kallingal as nurse Lini Puthussery, who contracted Nipah and passed away while treating the virus affected patients. Tovino Thomas will be playing the role of Kozhikode collector UV Jose.

The technical crew of Viurs includes some well-known names like National award winning cinematographer Rajeev Ravi, composer Sushin Shyam and editor Saiju Sreedharan. The movie is set to go on floors from December and it has been planned as a Vishu release, next April.
