Miya George to play the female lead in Kalidas Jayaram’s next

Kalidas Jayaram’s new film got launched last day with a customary pooja ceremony. Kalidas, his father Jayaram, Miya George, Lal Jose and many others attended the brief event held at 3 Dots Studio in Kochi. This yet-to-be titled film will be directed by debutant Vinil Varghese. Shoot is scheduled to begin by mid March.

Miya George and newcomer Riya will be seen as the female leads in the film. Director Vinil Varghese himself has written the story and screenplay. Dialogues are penned by Vincent Vadakkan of ‘Trance’ fame. The film is being produced by Sreejith KS and Blessy Sreejith under the banner of Navarasa Films. The makers have got popular Tamil music director Ghibran to compose music. This will be his second film in Malayalam after debuting last year by handling the background score in ‘Athiran’.

Kalidas meanwhile is awaiting the release of ‘Backpackers’ directed by Jayaraj. The film has him and debutante Karthika Nair playing the lead roles as terminally ill patients. It is expected to hit screens shortly.
