Actor Ahaana Krishna will play the female lead in Luca. Tovino Thomas, who has signed on to play the male lead, will reportedly be seen in a ‘never-before avatar’, according to a report in The New Indian Express.
“Though we cannot reveal the true genre of the movie yet, it will have a strong romantic angle. In fact, this can even be tagged a stylish romantic flick. The highlight of the movie will be Tovino’s different looks. However, it won’t be a physical change,” said Mridul George, who has written the script along with director Arun Bose.
The first draft of the project was ready in 2014.

“Even when we were writing the script, we had Tovino in mind. He too loved the script, but we were waiting for the right team to produce it. Luca will be made under the banner of Stories and Thoughts and we think this would be the right time to make it. Back then, we were quite sure that Tovino will emerge as one of the most bankable stars,” he said.
Sooraj S Kurup is in charge of the film’s music. Nimish Ravi takes care of the cinematography. Filming will begin shortly.
