Official: Alphonse Puthren’s next titled as Paattu; Fahadh Faasil to play the lead!

Five years after the release of the sensational hit ‘Premam’, director Alphonse Puthren has finally announced his next. The film has been titled as ‘Paattu’ and Fahadh Faasil will be playing the lead role in it. Zachariah Thomas and Alvin Antony will be producing the film under the banner of UGM Entertainments. Alphonse made the announcement through his official Facebook page. He also added that details regarding the cast and crew will be updated soon.

For the last few years, Alphonse has been planning to make a musical film. He has been learning music from various online sources for the project. Besides scripting and direction, Alphonse will also be composing the film’s music.

It is worth a mention that Kalidas Jayaram was the initial choice for the film. He later opted out due to other commitments. With Fahadh Faasil on board, expectations will be huge among the cinephiles. While there were rumours that the film will be a bilingual, Alphonse has confirmed that it will be made completely in Malayalam.
