Yoodlee Films has acquired the rights to produce a web series in Hindi, inspired by the story of India’s much talked about Biscuit King Rajan Pillai. National Award winning South Indian actor, director and producer Prithviraj Sukumaran will play the lead character based on Pillai.
Prithviraj, who has acted in over 100 films and whose 2019 directorial debut Lucifer became the highest-grossing Malayalam film ever, will also be directing the yet-to-be titled series while Yoodlee Films will helm the production. Says Prithviraj, “The existence of light and darkness in human lives has always engaged me as an actor and director and this story has it all— ambition, success, a jet-setting lifestyle and then a fall.” —TMS
