Sujith Vaassudev not to direct Tovino’s Forensic

We had earlier reported about Tovino Thomas teaming up with cinematographer-turned-filmmaker Sujith Vaassudev for a new film titled ‘Forensic’. The film has been scripted by writers Akhil Paul and Anas Khan after being by some real life inspired events. ‘Forensic’ was initially announced as the reunion of the ‘7th Day’ trio of Sujith Vaassudev, Tovino Thomas and Akhil Paul.

However, right before the start of shoot, director Sujith Vaassudev has opted out of the project. Instead, the writer duo will be directing the film. The exact reason for Sujith pulling out of ‘Forensic’ is not yet known, but he is currently busy working on the Telugu film ‘Miss India’, starring Keerthi Suresh in the lead.

‘Forensic’ meanwhile is getting ready to go on floors next month. The makers have signed Mamta Mohandas as the female lead. The actress, who is known to be selective with her projects, will be sharing screen space with Tovino for the first time. Saiju Kurup, Giju John, Reba Monica John and many others are also part of the cast. Cinematographer Akhil George, music director Jakes Bejoy and editor Shameer Muhammed form the core technical crew.

‘Forensic’ is being produced by Navis Xavier and Siju Mathew under the banner of Juvis Productions in association with Raju Malliath of Ragam Movies.
