Kalidas Jayaram in Alphonse Puthren’s next?

It’s been over nearly two years since Alphonse Puthren gave Premam, one of the highest grossing Malayalam movies of all time. The director is now prepping up to start shooting for his next, which will be a Tamil movie.

Speculations were rife about the director teaming up with Nivin Pauly once again but the director recently confirmed that Nivin is not a part of his next movie. Now there are reports about Kalidas Jayaram being approached to play the lead in this upcoming movie.

Last year, Kalidas made his debut appearance in Tamil with the movie Meen Kuzhambum Mann Paanaiyum. Poomaram, his Malayalam debut as a lead actor is gearing up for release. However, there is still no official confirmation about the actor teaming up with Alphonse Puthren.

The director has already established himself in the industry with his first two movies, Neram and Premam. Neram, which was a bilingual in Tamil and Malayalam, was a commercially successful venture. His Premam was a huge hit in Tamil Nadu which made him very popular among the Tamil audience.

Alphonse Puthren had recently revealed that his next will be a musical entertainer. For his upcoming movie, he has retained his two trusted friends/technicians; cinematographer Anend C Chandran and composer Rajesh Murugesan. More details regarding the project is expected to be announced in the next few days.
