Niranj, who made his debut in Bobby, has signed his next. The actor will be seen in director Ranjith's next Bilathikadha. The actor, who is the son of actor-producer Maniyanpillai Raju, says that being selected for Ranjith's next project was a dream-come-true moment for him.

"This is something I have been waiting for. I play an artist in Bilathikadha. It is a very performance-oriented role and I am required to train for it. I have started all preparations," he says.

He adds, "Bilathikadha is a family drama. Though Anu Sithara is cast in an important role in the movie, it isn't a romantic drama."

According to him, the crew will leave for London and Scotland next month to shoot. "Most of the movie will be shot in London and Scotland. There are some portions in Kerala too. But, I don't have any scenes here," says Niranj. 

Bilathikadha also has Dileesh Pothan, Suresh Krishna and Kalabhavan Shajohn in important roles. The movie has been scripted by Sethu, who will make his debut in direction with a project starring Mammootty.
