Won't say what his new look for home production is all about. But he's 5 kg lighter
Actor Ganesh has managed to knock off more than 5kg in the last two months and is all set to start work on his next film with a leaner look.
Ganesh, who had given up rice in the last two months and was living on fruits and grains, will begin work on Maleyali Jotheyali (Together in the rain) from the 18th of this month.
"We will have a photoshoot shortly," was all he would say.
Maleyali Jotheyali, Ganesh's 25th film, is the first to be produced under his banner Golden Movies.
Small break
Ganesh took a two-month break after his last movie Circus, postponing all shoots and cancelling public functions between March 27 and May 27.
The rumour doing the rounds was that the actor had taken the break following an astrologer's advice. But a source close to Ganesh insisted that it was his new venture that had kept him busy.
"Ganesh has been working for the past two months on the first movie to be produced under his banner. He is personally monitoring all aspects including story, script and direction," the source said.
Dream team
Ganesh is roping in Mungaru Male's dream team. Preetam Gubbi will direct the movie whileu00a0 Deepu and Krishna, responsible for editing and cinematography, will try and repeat the magic in Maleyali Jotheyali.
Bollywood touch
The romantic flick will also feature two Bollywood stars in the lead role Yuvika Chowdry and Anjana Sukhani.
