We had reported earlier that veteran filmmaker Kamal’s son Jenuse Mohamed is keen to step into his dad’s shoes and is all set to make an entry as filmmaker in Mollywood. 

Now we hear that Jenuse has roped in Dulquer Salmaan to play the lead in his debut film. A romantic comedy set in Bangalore, work on the film will start in June. Jenuse has announced on hissocial networking page that the pre-production is going on in full swing.

“Dulquer’s character in my film is that of a budding feature writer in a leading newspaper, who aspires to be a cartoonist as well. The film is an out-and-out urban love story and will portray Dulquer in a yet-to-be-seen avatar. We are yet to finalise the title and the heroine, but are hoping to announce them in a week’s time,” says Jenuse, a graduate from London Film School who has assisted Aashiq Abu in 22 Female Kottayam, Lal Jose in Ayalum Njanum Thammil and his dad Kamal in the award-grosser, Celluloid.

“I am excited and petrified in equal measure and need all your prayers and support,” the debutant mentions in the post. Meanwhile, Dulquer has also announced that he is going to be a part of Lal Jose’s Vikramadityan and Ranjith’s Njan.
