Popular Singer M G Sreekumar will now try his luck in acting. It is award-winning director Shyama Prasad who will be casting him as his new film’s hero.

The film which tells the story of a singer who has crossed his 60 is yet to be titled.

“I only agreed to do the role as the story line has elements from my own life,” Sreekumar told Kerala Kaumudi. Just the pre-production work of the film has started.

Incidentally, the singer has acted in yet-to-be-released film directed by Kukku Surendran and scripted by Shanka Ramakrishnan and lately, he has sung for Ittimani Made In China (Music by For Musics); Marakkar Arabikadalinte Simham (music by Roni Rafael) and PAttabhiraman ( music by M Jayachandran)
