Oman's beautiful locations will provide the backdrop for an upcoming movie by leading film producer from Kerala who is beginning the shooting next year.
According to a news report, producer Ousepachan Valakuzhy said he is very impressed by the beauty of Oman and has plans to feature the country's picturesque landscapes in his upcoming film. A part of the film will also be shot in Qatar, the report said.
Ousepachan's next project will be with the director duo of Siddique and Lal, who are coming back to shoot a film together after 20 years of working separately.
"While I haven't travelled around Oman, I found the city of Muscat to be quaint and charming. I will come back again to talk with the authorities concerned who could give me permission to use these beautiful locales for my next project," Ousepachan told the newspaper.
He is known for producing hits such as 'Nokkethadhoorathu Kannum Nattu', 'Ramji Rao Speaking' and 'Hitler'. The film, entitled 'King Liar' and starring Dileep in the lead, will be scripted by Siddique and directed by Lal.
It is a comedy and is expected to hit the screens in 2015. Siddique and Lal, who have given a number of hits, parted ways years ago and Ousepachan has played a key role in bringing the duo back together.
