Prithviraj’s Kaaliyan gets a new motion poster
On Prithviraj’s birthday, the makers of ‘Kaaliyan’ revealed a new motion poster. It features a warrior sitting on a horse and Ravi Basrur’s thumping score accompanies. It has been a few years since the project got announced. The makers had to postpone it due to multiple reasons, including Prithviraj’s tight schedule and the pandemic. They are now back on track and are planning to begin shooting by the end of this year. The team is currently involved in extensive pre-production works.

Mahesh S, who is a Kalaripayattu guru, is making his directorial debut with ‘Kaaliyan’, which is based on the Southern Ballads (Thekkan Paatukal). BT Anil Kumar has scripted the film, which tells the story of Kunchirakkottu Kali, a warrior who lived in the 17th century in Venad. Kaaliyan was a trusted disciple of Iravikkutty Pillai, a legendary warrior. The makers had initially announced that Prithviraj will be playing the titular role and veteran Tamil actor Sathyraj will be essaying the part of Iravikutty Pillai. But it remains to be seen if there will be any changes in the cast.
