Thodupuzha: The shoot of the Kerala State Road Transport Corporation’s first major advertisement film, starring Mohanlal and directed by Priyadarshan, has begun in Thodupuzha. Mohanlal is currently acting in the commercial while he is in the town for the shoot of another film directed by Tharun Moorthy.
 

Meanwhile, Transport Minister K B Ganesh Kumar said the project is significant as this is the first time a road transport corporation in India is producing an advertisement film of this nature. He had earlier stated that Mohanlal had agreed to serve as KSRTC’s goodwill ambassador.

Priyadarshan has previously revealed that Mohanlal will play the lead in his 100th directorial venture. The KSRTC advertisement, however, is being completed ahead of that milestone film.
