Priyadarshan signed a 3-film deal with Percept Picture Company some time back. The projects include AIDS, sequel to his yesteryear comedy blockbuster Maalamal Weekly and Grrrr. Grrrr is shaping up into a big budget flick as Priyadarshan has signed the most proficient technicians that includes academy award winner AR Rahman. Since the film will be shot in the deep-rooted forests of Africa, the filmmaker has been holding talks with top-charting cinematographers to shoot the film.
Amitabh Bachchan will play the lead role that of a British hunter Jim Corbett, who embarks a hazardous journey into the forests to hunt down a dangerous beast that has been preying on people. The film is expected to go on floors next year as Priyadarshan is busy now with the shooting schedules of his multi-starrer movie ‘Tez’.
