Director Arun Gopi is teaming up with Dileep again after the hit Ramaleela. The project marks the Malayalam debut of Tamannaah Bhatia. Bankrolled by Vinayaka Ajith under the banner of Ajith Vinayaka Films, the as-yet-untitled film went on floors on Thursday with a customary pooja ceremony in Kottarakkara.

Scripted by Udaykrishna, the project is being billed as a big-budget pan-Indian film. Leading actors from South Indian languages and Bollywood are also expected to feature in the film, which has Gujarat, Mumbai, and Jharkhand as the main locations. The narrative is set in North India as per a source close to production.

Arun Gopy has retained his Ramaleela collaborators Shajikumar and Vivek Harshan to handle the camera  and editing, respectively. Sam CS has been roped in as the music director.

Dileep was recently seen shooting for Voice of Sathyanathan directed by Raffi. It also has actors from various languages like Apuam Kher, Makarand Deshpande and Jagapathi Babu.
