Ten years ago when V M Vinu and Mohanlal joined their hands for 'Balettan', it gave the actor a break from his flop streaks. But thereafter they never got a chance to work together for another film. V M Vinu has directed 8 movies after 'Balettan'. These includes audience favorite movies like 'Makante Achan', 'Vesham', 'Bus Conductor' etc.

From the words of the director, the movie will be an out and out comedy entertainer. The story of V M Vinu – Mohanlal team movie is set in the 80s. The yet to title movie is about a wrestler named Happy Singh living in a small village in Punjab where wrestling is the favorite sport.

V M Vinu is planning to shoot the movie in Punjab and Bangalore. The shooting of the movie will be starting only in the latter half of this year once Mohanlal finishes his already committed works. Mohanlal- V M Vinu team's last venture 'Balettan' was the biggest hit of 2003, the same is expected to happen from their new venture as well.
