Music director Ravi Basrur to make debut in Tamil cinema

Music director Ravi Basrur, best known for having scored music for the pan Indian blockbuster KGF, is to make his debut in Tamil cinema as a music director with actor Arjun’s upcoming film, which went on floors with a traditional pooja on Wednesday.

The film, which is to be produced by AGS Entertainment, which is riding a success wave at the moment after having delivered blockbusters like Love Today and Dragon, is to be directed by debutant director Subhash K Raj.

The yet-to-be-titled film, which is tentatively being referred to as AGS 28, will feature two heroines — actresses Abhirami and Preity Mukhundhan.

The upcoming project has been designed as a wholesome family entertainer, say sources in the know. Interestingly, the director of the film, Subash K. Raj, previously had worked as an assistant director to actor and director Pradeep Ranganathan, who had a significant role to play in the successes of both ‘Love Today’ and ‘Dragon’.

Archana Kalpathi will take on the role of Creative Producer for this yet-untitled film, while her sister Aishwarya Kalpathi will be the Associate Creative Producer. S.M. Venkat Manickam will be the executive producer of this project.

Sources say that apart from the lead actors, the film will also feature actors Vivek Prasanna, John Kokken, Arjun Chidambaram, Pawan, Dileepan, Vinod Sagar and Bala Hasan R in important roles.
