Well-known director Sathyan Anthikkad has started shooting his new, as yet untitled, film, which has the sea as the backdrop.

Nivin Pauly, who has become very popular after Thattathin Marayathu, plays the lead together with Nedumudi Venu and Namitha Pramod.

The film has been scripted by Benny P Nayarambalam.

The cinematographer is Venu and the music has been composed by Ilaiyaraja.

It is Anthikkad's habit to decide on a title for a film as the film is nearing completion.  

The shooting has started at Alappuzha. The film will be distributed by Ann Mega Media and will hit the screens some time in October.
