Sriram Raghavan set to helm his next thriller in June

After the humongous success of Andhadhun (2018), filmmaker Sriram Raghavan is set to wield the megaphone for yet another suspense thriller. The film will be produced by Ramesh Taurani under the banner of Tips Films. The producer last bankrolled the Salman Khan starrer Race 3 (2018), which failed to fare well at the cash counter.

Though the makers confirm signing Raghavan to helm the suspense thriller, which hits the shooting floor in June, everyone is tight-lipped about the storyline of the project at the moment.


"Yes, we signed Sriram last year and had planned to start this film soon after he wrapped up Andhadhun. He’s a brilliant director who has proved his mettle time and again. We are all excited and have been meeting regularly. The film is currently being scripted. We will begin casting as soon as he finishes writing it. Sriram is known for his thrillers and we are working on making this one as interesting as the others," said Ramesh Taurani.

Amongst Raghavan’s previous work, Johnny Gaddaar (2007) and Badlapur (2017) have gained cult status over the years.
