Mammootty’s next with Rajadhiraja fame Ajai Vasudev is all set to go on floors on April 17. The movie is scripted by Udhayakrishna who is basking in the historic success of Pulimurugan.

This yet to be titled movie is made as a big budget movie. A new production house Royal Cinemas owned by CH Muhammed will be producing this movie. The movie is touted to be a mass thriller set in the backdrop of a government arts college. Mammootty is playing the role of a strict and short tempered professor.

Director Ajai Vasudev had earlier revealed that Mammootty’s role in the movie is a larger than life character, just like how it is usually in mass entertainers. The movie has an ensemble star cast. Kollywood actress Varalaxmi Sarathkumar, who made her debut in Malayalam opposite Mammootty in Kasaba, is playing the female lead. Mahima Nambiar and Poonam Bajwa will also be seen in pivotal roles.

Promising young actors Unni Mukundan and Gokul Suresh Gopi are also part of the cast. Other supporting actors include Mukesh, Captain Raju, Kalabhavan Shajon, Ganesh Kumar, Shivaji Guruvayoor, Biju Kuttan, Salim Kumar and Maqbool Salmaan among others.
