Though The Prince and The Pauper storyline has been beaten to pulp in Mollywood, the young director claims that his movie will be different and will also have enough humour to keep the audience entertained.
Samvrutha Sunil will be playing the female lead in the movie opposite Asif. The pair also has AK Sajan's thriller Asuravithu slated for a November release.
Incidentally, Asuravithu is expected to be a turning point in Asif's career, which has seen him act in supporting roles expect for Violin that bombed in the box office.
He plays a youngster Don Bosco who arrives in Kochi to join a seminary to become a priest. However, as fate would have it, he ends up becoming an underworld don.
It now remains to be seen if Asuravithu could be Asif's Raajavinte Makan, which in 1986 had Mohanlal playing the role of a don and its box-office earnings propelled the actor to superstardom.
