Anjali's film with Yogi Babu titled Bigg Boss; goes on floors today

We had earlier reported that Anjali, who was last seen in Vijay Sethupathi’s Sindhubaadh, will next be headlining a fantasy comedy, to be directed by Krishnan Jeyaraj, who earlier made the 2013 film, Sonna Puriyathu. Now, the film, which also stars Yogi Babu and Vijay TV-fame Ramar in pivotal roles, has been titled Bigg Boss.

"While we have seen Anjali excel in humour in films like Engeyum Eppodhum, she has not done a full-length comedy film yet. Thus, we thought she would really be apt for this film," says director Krishnan. He further reveals that the film, which goes on floors today, will be set in "a parallel world and will be a clean entertainer for families and kids."

Producer Sinish, who directed the Jai-starrer Balloon, says that Anjali will have a complete makeover for her role in the film. "Yogi Babu and Vijay TV fame Ramar aren’t just cast for their popularity. They will both appear in substantial roles. We will soon be making a few more casting announcements," he says.

Bigg Boss is all set to be shot in Chennai and hill stations across India. The crew will apparently shoot for 45 days, split into three schedules.  The film will have music by Vishal Chandrasekhar and cinematography by Arvi.
