I'm delighted to announce to the world that I will be collaborating with (a production house) on their sixth project, marking my directorial debut.”

He further said, “While I cannot say too much, I will tell you that the film is a legal drama rooted in realism, produced by @sanju_unnithan . I'm also excited to have the talented @prayagamartin on board for the project.”
