After Revathi, Rohini and Suhasini, we have one more yesteryear actresses who is all set to don the director’s hat. We are talking about Vinaya Prasad, one of the leading South Indian actresses in the late 80s and 90s.

Vinaya Prasad is a set to direct a Kannada movie titled as Laxminarayanara Prapanchane Bere. The movie is written by her husband Jyothi Prakash Atre. Apparently, the veteran actress was always interested in the technical aspects of filmmaking and took it up as a challenge while turning a director.

For her debut directorial, she has roped in a good technical team for support. Her husband also has a vast experience in theatre and has also worked as a creative head for many ad agencies.

Laxminarayanara Prapanchane Bere will a comedy entertainer and it will be made on a limited budget. In a recent interview to Times Of India, she is quoted saying,

“The film will be a laugh riot, a full-on entertainer. It is a family drama that revolves around a husband and wife, Narayana played by actor Manjunath Hegde and Laxmi played by myself. The film will also see two special appearances by my husband and daughter, Prathama Prasad. There are no stunts and the movie will give the audience a social message to take home.”

The movie is all set to go on floors on April 3 and the team is planning to wrap up the shoot by April 20.
