Apart from
concentrating on Malayalam films, superstar Mohanlal has been active in other
film industries. The actor who has tried out various roles will next play a
DRDO engineer in Mythri, a Kannada film directed by Giri Raj.
Mythri is touted to be an issue based film that highlights child rights and
other social problems. Director Giri Raj says, "My earlier film, Jatta,
was also an issue based film; this movie will also follow the same
pattern."Kannada star Puneeth Rajkumar will be seen playing the actor himself in it. Actors from different industries have been roped in for the film. Atul Kulkarni, Ravi Kale and Bhavana will also play prominent roles."The subject has got a universal appeal and so I have roped in actors from other industries. The movie is a multi-lingual one, which will be released in Tamil, Malayalam and Kannada," says Giri Raj.
The director is happy to direct superstar Mohanlal in his film. "People like Mohanlal here. He's not just a good actor, but a great human being too. He's an experienced actor and works hard for every shot," he says.
Ilayaraja has scored the music for the film, which is expected to hit the theatres in October.
