Asin and Asano in Chennai

asin-26-05-09.jpgAfter almost shifting her base to Mumbai, Asin will be in town this week briefly. Not that she is back for good, but she is in town to attend the photo shoot session of her upcoming venture 19 steps, produced by Bharath Bala and Walt Disney Productions. The movie also stars the Japanese heartthrob Tadanobu Asano who plays the warrior who learns Kalaripayattu from Kamal. Earlier, Asano was also in Chennai for the same reason before flying down to Calicut for further discussions with the film's writer M T Vasudevan Nair.

19 Steps, directed by Bharath Bala, will go on floors in Kerala starting September 2009. Set in the backdrop of the 9th century, the movie supposedly attempts to find the roots of Kerala's martial art Kalaripayattu. Asin's photo shoot will be held in Alwarpet.
