We had recently reported about Antony Varghese, Shane Nigam, and Neeraj Madhav teaming up for a film titled RDX. Sophia Paul's Weekend Blockbusters is backing the film, which went on floors on Wednesday with a customary pooja ceremony.

Directed by debutant Nahas Hidayath, RDX is billed as an action-packed entertainer. The film, named after its principal characters Robert, Dony, and Xavier, will be heavy on action, with the use of martial arts being an integral factor. National award-winning stunt duo Anbariv (KGF, Kaithi, and Vikram) is making their Malayalam debut with this film.

RDX, scripted by Shabas Rasheed and Adarsh Sukumaran, is said to be a youth-based thriller set in West Kochi. It centres on some events revolving around a bunch of friends. While predominantly a thriller, the script is said to have humour, romance, and emotional elements too. Mahima Nambiar and Aima Rosmy Sebastian have been signed as the female leads. The cast also features Lal, Baiju Santhosh, Shammi Thilakan, Maala Parvathy, and Nishant Sagar.

Sam CS (Kaithi, Vikram Vedha) is on board as the composer, with lyrics by Manu Manjith. Alex J Pulikal (Action Hero Biju, Driving Licence) is the director of photography, and Richard Kevin (Vikram Vedha, Suzhal) is in charge of editing.
