While the tamil industry is churning out one of the costliest films ever in Robot, the malayalam film industry is ready to come up with a small budget entertainer with a tin man in the lead role.
Robo, a Malayalam film in the making, has a robot playing a full-length role, for the first time. Produced and directed by Dr. R. Prasanna Kumar, the film is intended to be a light entertainer targeted at the family audience and children too.
Popular artists like veteran actor Madhu, Shankar, Indrans, Kochupreman, Monilal, Sanal Kumar, Archana, Kulapulli Leela also find a place in the cast, which also includes a host of child artists. Robo features songs penned by Dr. R Prasanna Kumar himself, which are set to tune by Nedumkunnam Sreedev. K.P. Jyothikumar, who had earlier cranked the camera for Neelaakaasham Niraye and had also won the Critics Award for his work on television in 2005 and 2006, cranks the camera for the venture.
The film, which the debutante director had been cherishing in his heart for about ten years as sort of a dream project, is likely to get released in February or March. Dr. Prasanna Kumar himself does the script, while art-direction is by Gireesh Vaikkom. Robo is produced under the banner of Sri Vijay Ganesh Productions.
