In a recent turn of events, the success bash for Prashanth Neel’s latest action film, ‘Salaar part 1: Ceasefire,’ held in Bangalore, saw the absence of Prithviraj Sukumaran, who played a crucial role in the movie as Varadharaja Mannar. Despite the star-studded celebration featuring Prabhas, Prashanth Neel, Shruti Haasan, Jagapathi Babu, and others, Prithviraj’s non-appearance became a notable point of discussion.
Exclusive sources disclosed to ETimes that the reason behind Prithviraj Sukumaran’s absence was his commitment to the ongoing shooting of his directorial project, ‘L2: Empuraan,’ in the UK. The insider information highlighted that the UK schedule for Mohanlal’s ‘L2: Empuraan’ is anticipated to wrap up by January 21. Following the UK shoot, Prithviraj is slated to focus on completing his Bollywood venture ‘Bade Miyan Chote Miyan,’ directed by Ali Abbas Zafar, featuring Tiger Shroff and Akshay Kumar in lead roles.
Further insights from the source revealed that Prithviraj Sukumaran is scheduled to join the final shooting phase of Vipin Das’ ‘Guruvayoor Ambalanadayil’ in February. The film boasts a stellar cast including Basil Joseph, Anaswara Rajan, Siju Sunny, and others in significant roles, with Prithviraj essaying an antagonist character. Vipin Das, renowned for the superhit ‘Jaya Jaya Jaya Jaya Hey,’ has heightened expectations for ‘Guruvayoor Ambalanadayil.’
