Chandhini R

The makers of Vilayath Buddha have shared a making video on Saturday. The film, which was supposed to be helmed by late filmmaker Sachy, is now directed by debutant Jayan Nambiar, who assisted Prithviraj Sukumaran in Lucifer.

The film stars Prithviraj and Kottayam Ramesh in the main roles. Vilayath Buddha is the big-screen adaptation of GR Indugopan's novel of the same name. Indugopan and Rajesh Pinnadan are scripting the film. The making video offers a glimpse of filming in a countryside location, surrounded by lush greenery and hills. It also shows Prithviraj and Kottayam Ramesh doing their make-up and getting ready for the shot. 

The story revolves around two characters — an old named Bhaskaran Master and his protege, a smuggler named Double Mohanan. Vilayath Buddha is reportedly about a conflict between two men trying to claim ownership of a sandalwood tree planted by the former. While Kottayam Ramesh plays the role of Bhaskaran Master, Prithviraj plays his Protege. Anu Mohan, Thottappan-fame Priyamvada Krishnan, and Shammy Thilakan are also part of the cast.

The film's technical crew includes cinematographer Arvind Kashyap, music composer Jakes Bejoy and editor Sreejith Sarang.  Vilayath Buddha is backed by Sandip Senan under the Urvasi Theatres banner.
