Here’s Mamta Mohandas as Annie in Prithviraj’s Nine aka 9

Shoot for Prithviraj’s upcoming movie Nine (9) has been progressing at a brisk pace for over a month in the Himalayas. The movie directed by Jenuse Mohamed of ‘100 Days of Love’ fame is sci-fi flick, though it is yet to be confirmed by the makers. Punjabi actress Wamiqa Gabbi, who made an impressive Malayalam debut last year with ‘Godha’, is playing a crucial role in the movie.

Mamta Mohandas is the latest to join the team of 9. Prithviraj has released her character poster today through his official Facebook handle. Her character is named Annie and it is presumably a very prominent one in the movie. This is Mamta’s second outing with Prithviraj after acting alongside him in ‘Anwar’ and ‘Celluloid’. She was also supposed to play the female lead in Prithviraj’s upcoming movie ‘Ranam’ aka ‘Detroit Crossing’ but opted out citing date issues.

Prithviraj is said to be playing a scientist in 9, the story of which happens over nine days. The movie, which is supposedly a big budget one, has a solid technical crew. Abhinandan Ramanujam, well known for his works in movies like ‘Amen’ and ‘Mosayile Kuthirameenukal’ is cranking the camera and edits are handled by Shameer Muhammed. Shaan Rahman is composing the songs while ‘Da Thadiya’ fame Sekhar Menon composes the original music score.

Prithviraj’s newly launched production house Prithviraj Productions is producing this movie jointly with Sony Pictures International Productions.
