Parvathy Thiruvothu and Urvashi
Parvathy Thiruvothu and Urvashi will be seen sharing screen space in two films this year. While the duo is part of Lijin Jose’s Her, they are also now shooting for debutant filmmaker Christo Tomy’s film titled Ullozhukkam.
Apart from the two brilliant actresses, the film also has Arjun Radhakrishnan, who had played APJ Abdul Kalam in the Sony LIV series Rocket Boys and was seen in the role of a collector who is held by hostages in Kunchacko Boban and Vinayakan-starrer Pada.
In an exclusive chat ahead of his next release Dear Friend, Arjun tells us, “I am also part of Ullozhukku with Parvathy Thiruvothu and Urvashi chechi. It’s being directed by Christo Tomy. It’s something I am working on right now.”
In an earlier interview with The Hindu, Parvathy had confirmed that she had indeed signed up for the film helmed by Christo, who had helmed acclaimed short films such as Virgin and Sweetheart. Ullozhukku was part of the National Film Development Corporation of India’s Screenwriter’s Lab. The movie is reportedly being produced by Macguffin Pictures, which has backed Raat Akeli Hai and Soup – both Netflix releases. The script of Ullozhukku was also picked as the winner of the Cinestaan India’s Storyteller Contest in 2018 by the jury that included Aamir Khan and Rajkumar Hirani.
Parvathy had said that Christo had approached her with the script a few years ago and she found it “too intense”. Once Christo reworked the screenplay, she decided to do the project that has “an extremely good subject”, she explained.
The actress, meanwhile, has completed shooting for her Amazon Prime Video web series debut Dhootha, which is directed by Vikram Kumar and has Naga Chaithanya, Prachi Desai and Priya Bhavani Shankar as part of the cast. The Malayalam actress, who was last seen in Puzhu, is also part of Anjali Menon’s upcoming film.
