Jiiva

Jiiva

Gorilla movie directed by Don Sandy who has previously directed Mahabalipuram, featuring Jiiva, as the male lead and Arjun Reddy fame Shalini Pandey as the female lead of the movie. It is said that Gorilla is a heist comedy thriller which got on floors recently and the first schedule of the shooting happened in Pondicherry. But major portion of the movie is planned to shoot in Thailand. It is believed that a chimpanzee is also in the cast and will be traveling with the Gorilla team. Sources close to the movie say that, the team has got permission from the Government of Thailand and India to shoot with it. However People for Ethical treatment to Animals (PETA) has shot a notice to the team to follow the strategy of Planet of the Apes and The Jungle Book by hiring CG experts to recreate wild animals rather than using a chimpanzee. The shooting would resume in the next couple of weeks as the Kollywood strike has come to an end. It is light-hearted entertainer about a group of people trying to loot a bank with the help of a chimpanzee. This might be a different science fiction in Tamil cinema.
