Popular Mollywood actor Prithviraj Sukumaran’s much-anticipated venture Kaduva went on floors recently. The action thriller marks the second collaboration between filmmaker Shaji Kailas and actor Prithviraj Sukumaran.
Announcing the news to fans, Prithviraj shared a poster from the movie on Twitter on Saturday and wrote, “They wanted a fight...He gave them a war!” Rolling from today! (sic).” Prithviraj looks rugged, wearing a white shirt and is seen smoking a cigar. We also see mountains in the backdrop and the rearview mirror of a car, elements that build suspense around the plot. The movie is reportedly going to be filmed in Kerala’s Mundakayam and Kumily.
Kaduva is bankrolled by Supriya Menon and Listin Stephen. Jinu V Abraham is on board as the writer, while Abinandhan Ramanujam will be taking care of the cinematography. Jakes Bejoy has been roped in as the music director for the venture.
