There are reports that the Pranav Mohanlal starrer will also be a dark thriller centred around a youth who is goes behind a serial killer. It will be a big budget movie to be made with a production cost of around 10 crores. Mohanlal’s home production banner Aashirvad Cinemas will be funding this movie.
Pranav meanwhile, has been undergoing training in Parkour for playing his part in the movie. Parkour is a form of acrobatic physical training that involves crossing obstacles by running, climbing, jumping, rolling and swinging.
Parkour techniques have been used in action scenes in many Hollywood movies like Casino Royale, Bourne Ultimatum, District 13 and Prince of Persia. Mohanlal himself had earlier revealed this bit of information in an interview. He had said that, the basics of Parkour would be easier for Pranav than for most people as he is used to gymnastics, skydiving and rock climbing. Pranav’s action sequences is said to be the major highlight of the movie.
