Prithviraj to play a scientist in his next movie?!
Recent reports from Mollywood says that actor Prithviraj will do one more movie before he begins working on Lucifer. The actor is reportedly set to play a scientist in Jenuse Mohammed’s upcoming sci-fi film which is reportedly titled Nayan.
It was earlier reported that the director was keen on roping in Parvathy and Nithya Menen for the movie. While the director is yet to finalise the casting, the shoot of the film is set to begin this month. We also hear that the movie would mark Prithviraj’s first venture as an independent producer after moving out of August Cinemas late last year. The official announcement of the film is awaited. Prithviraj and his wife Supriya, have rolled out a new film production company. Named after the actor himself, Prithviraj Productions wants to “give back to cinema,” a statement read. 
According to a statement released by Prithviraj through his official social media accounts, Prithviraj said that the duo was realising a dream, by launching the production company.We have always wanted to give back to cinema… and we couldn’t possibly think of a better way to do that than facilitate films which we believe will make Malayalam cinema proud,” the statement read.
The actor said that they have been in the process of realising their dream for the past year. Prithviraj also thanked entrepreneur Shaji Nadesan and cinematographer, film director, producer and actor Santosh Sivan saying that they held his hand when he took baby steps into the world of film production. Till 2017, Prithviraj was part of a production house called August Cinema, along with Shaji Nadesan, Santosh Sivan and actor Arya.
However, around six years after being part of the production house, Prithviraj announced that he was pulling out from the company, stating that it was time for him to take a different tangent. Prithviraj’s latest release was the movie Vimaanam, which was released in December last year. Recently, the first look poster of his upcoming film Kaliyan was released.4
