Five years after his directorial debut, Nadrisha will direct Jayasurya and Namitha Pramod again in a thriller scripted by Suneesh Varanad, who wrote the Indrajith-Manju Warrier film Mohanlal.

Salim Kumar is also part of the cast in a significant role. Sujith Vaassudev has joined the film as director of photography. The film is backed by actor Arun Narayan and set to begin rolling next month.

Nadirsha has been working in comedies until now, and this project is said to be something different from the Kattappanayile Ritwik Roshan director. He recently completed production of the Dileep-starrer Keshu Ee Veedinte Nathan. The film has Dileep and Urvashi playing a middle-aged couple.
