Vishal to play detective in 'Thupparivaalan'

Actor Vishal Krishna is tipped to play a detective in filmmaker Mysskin's upcoming Tamil fantasy thriller "Thupparivaalan", which was officially launched here on Thursday.

"Vishal will be seen as a detective. While the film will be another thriller along the lines of most Mysskin's films, the fantasy angle is something that audiences will find unique," a source from the film's unit told IANS.

The film's regular shooting is expected to start later this month.

The rest of the cast, including the leading lady, is yet to be finalised.

Arrol Corelli, who had previously worked in Mysskin's "Pisasu", has been roped in to compose the tunes.

Vishal is producing the film under his home banner Vishal Film Factory.
