I am paired opposite Ajmal Ameer and privileged to act alongside KR Vijaya, K Bhagyaraj, Senthil, Imman Annachi, Anupama Kumar, Delhi Ganesh and Roshan Basheer. I get possessed by a spirit, which is essayed by Nikita. We are seven days into shoot — and I’m having a great time in Ooty, where the film is being shot.”
