Director Brahma shares more details about his upcoming project and describes it as a crime thriller. "What makes this untitled film unique is its non-linear storytelling style, a less explored approach in Indian cinema," says Brahma, who intends to portray the protagonist in dual shades.
This film will be bankrolled by Kalasrushti Productions and will be shot in Bengaluru and Kodagu. Afzal, who is playing a role, will also be doubling up as an executive producer. The untitled project, has cinematography by Rajeev Ganeshan and music by Raghavan Kartik. The shooting is scheduled to commence in November.
