Prabhu Deva perfects Malayalam

The road to success is not a bed of roses. Prabhu Deva, the choreographer turned actor turned director will soon be seen donning the role of Vawali in the Santosh Sivan directed magnum opus epic drama ‘Urumi’. The film sees Prithviraj playing the lead role with a good handful of lead roles portrayed by lead artists across the country.

The talkies part of the film is taking place. In connection with this Prabhu Deva who has a very relevant part in the film, recently revealed to media he has dubbed for the film in his own voice. Though Santosh Sivan had saved a good three days for Prabhu Deva’s dubbing, the actor has surprised everyone with his quick and correct version of rendering the Malayalam language.

Sources also reveal that Deva will be seen in the film as the lead character’s close associate. Prabhu Deva will share screen space with Nithya Menon, and the duo will also feature in a song together. We need not have a doubt with regards to the cinematography as well as the scenic beauty in the film because ‘Urumi’ is a Santosh Sivan product.

‘Urumi’ is set in the 15th century. The film is being created with a whooping 20-crore budget which makes it the second most costliest film in the Malayalam film industry next to ‘Pazhasi Raja.’ One more highlight of ‘Urumi’ is a song sung by Sonu Nigam. This is the first Malayalam film where the singer has lent his voice for a song. The audio release of the film will be held in the Kerala capital of Thiruvananthapuram next week, suggest reports.

With many such firsts let’s hope ‘Urumi’ clears the first place in Malayalam charts post release.
