Interestingly, the upcoming film is not the only collaboration between the popular filmmaker and Mammootty. GVM, who is often seen in guest appearances in films, is playing a significant role in the megastar's upcoming 'Bazooka', directed by Deeno Dennis.
Meanwhile, on the work front, GVM's long-delayed directorial 'Dhruva Natchathiram', starring Vikram, is awaiting release.
Mammootty, on the other hand, was last seen this year in the action flick 'Turbo'.
