Priyamani's next project is glamorous role

After playing a housemaid Thulasi opposite Srinivasan (Dhanush) in the much-acclaimed offbeat Tamil film Adhu Oru Kana Kaalam (2005), National award winning Priyamani will once again team up with director Balu Mahendra in his new Tamil film to be produced by an NRI Sri Lankan.
If Balu Mahendra's Adhu Oru Kana Kaalam had Priyamani portraying the role of a girl next door, his new film will have her in a glamorous role, it is heard. This yet-to-be-titled film will introduce a new face as the hero.
Cinematography will be handled by Anwar, a gold medalist from the Pune Film Institute. Music is by Balu Mahendra’s favourite Ilayaraja. This film is expected to start rolling in November 2010.
Priyamani is currently busy with five films: ace Mani Ratnam's Tamil and Hindi versions of Raavan, Master (Malayalam), Saadhyam (Telugu) and Eno Onthara (Kannada). Her recent releases are Raam (Kannada) and Shambo Shiva Shambo (Telugu).

Priyamani joins Balu Mahendra

Balu Mahendra who gave Priyamani one of her life time roles in ‘Adhu Oru Kana Kaalam, has again picked the dusky beauty for his next film.

In ‘Adhu Oru Kana Kaalam’ Priyamani did an excellent job opposite Dhanush. The film was considered off-beat and hence did not do well at the box office.

This new film by Balu Mahendra will be her first serious film after going for an image make over as a glamorous heroine. The film is being produced by Srilankan Tamils living abroad.

The yet to be titled film will introduce a new hero and Priyamani has agreed for that. Balu Mahendra will train all the other new actors in the film with an expert trainer before they face the camera.

Cinematography will be handled by Anwar, who is a gold medalist from Poona Film Institute. Music is by Balu Mahendra’s favourite Illayaraja. Assistant Directors who will be working in this film are the students of Balu Mahendra Film Institute.

The new film is expected to start rolling in November.
