Love for cricket has brought Kollywood heroes together
In a one-of-its-kind collaboration, two much-in-demand young stars are jointly producing a film for another actor’s film. Not just because he is their buddy but because they have a shared passion cricket.
Vishal who started his production company, Vishal Film Factory, last year and Arya who also ventured into production with his home banner, The Show People, have joined hands for a film titled Jeeva which stars Vishnu Vishal in the lead. Directed by Suseenthiran, the movie is based on cricket. Vishnu was a cricketer, and has represented Tamil Nadu in Ranji Trophy matches before he became an actor. He is also the star cricketer of the Celebrity Cricket League which is captained by Vishal.
“When Suseenthiran narrated the story of Jeeva, I felt that the film will be a game-changing one for Vishnu. I want to be associated with good cinema and Arya and I have both resolved to go all out to promote the movie,” said Vishal. Arya added that when Susee approached him with the idea of Jeeva, he was happy that Vishnu had been cast in the lead. “I was only too happy to produce this film and promote a good script.”
