Indrajith and Murali Gopy, who were last seen together in Tiyaan will soon team up for Thakkol, to be directed by debutant Kiran Prabhakaran.

According to the director, the film will focus on the protagonist's life journey. "It is a mix of many genres. While it deals with human psyche, there will be a suspense element as well. But the narrative will be laced with humour," says Kiran.

The filmmaker says that both Indrajith and Murali Gopy will play the lead characters. "In fact, the film rides on their chemistry. Their combo has always been notable and Thaakkol too will ride on their onscreen chemistry," he says, adding that the characters are tailor-made for the actors. "When I finished the script, I felt Indrajith and Murali Gopy would be perfect as the protagonists. Both loved the script." 

Thaakkol will have Resul Pookooty in the sound department. According to the director, the film's highlight will be its sound and music. M Jayachandran will compose the music for the film.

The film will also have Shaji Kailas as the producer. Shaji told us that he found the script very virtuous. "Thaakkol has a unique story. This story demands to be told. Hence, I wanted to be a part of the team," he adds.

Thakkol is set to go on floors by the end of March. The team will release the first-look posters in a week.
