Pairing up yet again on a project titled Mambo, music composer D Imman has praised director Prabhu Solomon, saying his visuals inspire him to do a lot of new things with the soundscape.

In a short video, the Kumki composer said he has used the maximum number of original sounds for the film. He added that Mambo will also live up to the duo's previous collaborations and contain rooted and foot-tapping songs.

Mambo, billed to be the first Asian film shot with a real lion, will be the sixth collaboration between Imman and Prabhu Solomon, with their previous outings being Lee (2007), Mynaa (2010), Kumki (2012), Kayal (2014), and Thodari (2016).

The film is bankrolled by Roja Combines, the production banner known for backing films like Perarasu, Porkkaalam, Paattali, and Vaanchinathan. The company is returning to film production after 18 years.

Mambo has Vijay Sri Harri, veteran actor Vijayakumar's grandson, Yogi Babu, and Tejaswi in pivotal roles.

The film will reportedly feature the friendship between a boy and a lion. Prabhu Solomon's son, Samuel Sanjay, is debuting as a cinematographer with Mambo.

Apart from Imman and Samuel, the technical crew of Mambo also comprises editor LVK Doss. The film is currently in production. More details regarding the storyline, cast, and release date are yet to be disclosed by the makers.
