Prithviraj's Ramzan's offering, Chocolate, had all the superb flavours that entice cinegoers. His next film is again a festive release. Yes, this Christmas we have Prithviraj in a new film Kangaroo. But why the title Kangaroo?

It's because Kangaroo will have the young rising star doing a job similar to that of a kangaroo. Just as a kangaroo takes her baby in its pouch wherever it goes, Josekutty (Prithviraj) will be carrying with him a one-and-half-year-old child.

Prithviraj plays Josekutty of Palakunnel family, who despite being a graduate, takes up the job of an auto driver, in order to support his family, which is suffering from a financial crisis. Kind-hearted Josekutty has a good friend circle too--Manmadhan, Chellappan and Prasanth. Once, when he happens to find a one-and-half-year-old child on the streets, he decides to adopt and bring up the child. Since that moment, he takes the child wherever he goes, providing him all needed care.

Kavya Madhavan is the heroine and Jayasurya is the other male lead. Jayasurya teamed up with Prithviraj for the first time in Swapnakoodu, a hit film and again in the super-hit Classmates. They were again seen together in the recent hit Chocolate.

The colourful entertainer directed by Raj Babu, scripted by J. Pallassery is produced under the banner of Isabella Movie Tone. Others in the cast include Jagathy Sreekumar, Lalu Alex, Salim Kumar, Harishree Ashokan, Bindu Panicker, and K.P.A.C. Lalitha. Salu George cranks the camera.

The movie, slated for release this Christmas, will be brought to theatres by Lal Creations.
