Taking the expectations surrounding B Unnikrishnan’s Mohanlal-starrer to an all new level, the director has confirmed that Peter Hein would be at the helm of action choreography in the film.
Adding further details, he said, “The film is a Hollywood-style thriller, and Peter Hein coordinates the stunt sequences in the final portions of the movie.”
It’s a reunion for the Mohanlal and Peter Hein who packed a punch together for the Vysakh-directorial Pulimurugan. Peter Hein is known for bringing new aesthetics into the area of action choreography with films like Enthiran, Ravan and Magadheera.
Refuting any comparison with Pulimurugan owing to the magical combo of Mohanlal and Peter, Unnikrishnan states that magic can be made even otherwise. “Any story that has been borne out of a well thought out idea can create magic. It’s not any particular formula that creates it.”
“This isn’t an out-and-out action flick. Peter and I have had a discussion and I’ve let him know my requirements. A good stunt master delivers exactly what the director wants, and that’s what I think Peter will do,” said Unnikrishnan.
“Mohanlal plays a voluntarily retired cop and as opposed to rampant reports, Hansika isn’t playing a cameo, but a significant character,” Unnikrishnan clarified.
The film, which also has Manju Warrier on board, will start the shoot on March 2.
