Vishal is now completing “Malaikottai,” which he stars with Priyamani. The new movie will be produced by his brother Vikram Krishna for his home production.

Because of his success in Telugu, his brother Vikram Krishna has decided to do the bilingual now. Kannada superstar Upendra playing an important role.
