Anjali's next a 3D horror flick

After tasting success with horror comedy 'Geetanjali,' pretty actress Anjali is returning with another horror flick 'Lissa'. The film, which is being produced by cinematographer-turned-director PG Muthiah, will be directed by debutant Raju Viswanath. The makers have roped in Anjali to play the lead in this horror film, which will be shot in Tamil and Telugu, and dubbed in Hindi.

"Usually, horror films have a bunch of elements — a haunted place, a few friends, a ghost with overdone makeup, the ghost throwing people across the room, a revenge angle and so on. We have tried to step away from such clichés with this film," begins Raju Viswanath, who has worked in the story department of many films, especially in the Telugu industry.

On why he chose Anjali for this project, the filmmaker says, "She is one actress who can speak Tamil. We began this as a short-term project, so we needed someone who could speak both the languages effortlessly and handle the workload of shooting in two languages simultaneously. Usually, we see Anjali in roles that have her as a middle-class or lower middle-class girl, but in this film, she plays a modern girl, a brave one at that."
