Prithviraj to put on weight as Aadujeevitham starts rolling in February!
Prithviraj is currently busy promoting his next release Vimaanam, slated to hit screens during the coming Christmas season. The movie directed by debutant Pradeep M Nair is inspired from a real life person who built an aircraft on his own. Prithviraj is also simultaneously working on Anjali Menon’s movie. In January he is expected to join the final schedule of his long pending film My Story, directed by Roshni Dinaker.
After the completion of My Story, Prithviraj will start shooting for ace filmmaker Blessy’s ambitious project Aadujeevitham. It is an epic film that is being planned to be shot over a period of two years. For the first schedule, director Blessy has asked Prithviraj to put on a few kilos. The actor himself revealed this in a recent interview to TOI.
He is quoted saying, “We will start shooting in February. For the first schedule of the movie, Blessy actually wants me to put on weight; I am trying to do that. After that, I will start work on Lucifer (his directorial debut) and after finishing it, I will resume with Aadujeevitham.”
Aadujeevitham is one of the most talked about projects in recent times. The movie is based on Benyamin’s award winning novel of the same name, which is about the life of an abused migrant worker in Saudi Arabia. It is being planned to be made simultaneously in Malayalam and Hindi.
Prithviraj will be undergoing drastic physical changes for Aadujeevitham. The protagonist Najeeb Mohammed undergoes lot of physical changes in the course of the movie. The makers have planned to shoot the movie in various schedules through the time span of which Prithviraj will be undergoing multiple physical transformations.
