Srujan Lokesh's next is a mystery thriller

Srujan Lokesh has just wrapped up shooting for the Darshan-starrer comedy Jaggu Dada, in which he plays a pivotal role, and is now ready for his next. Srujan, we hear, has signed up for a mystery thriller called Happy Journey, to be directed by debutant Shyam, who had earlier assisted on the actor's film, Snehitaru. 'I have never done a suspense thriller before, so I am quite excited about the opportunity.I am sure it will be a unique experience,' says Srujan, who will be paired with newbie Amitha. The film, adds Shyam, explores the dynamics of colleagues in a tech firm, including the competion ' both good and bad ' and how equations change when one gets promoted over the other, etc. To be shot across locations in Bengaluru, Sakleshpur and Moodigere, Happy Journey, which also stars Kuri Prathap and Naveen Padil in pivotal roles, is expected to go on floors by the end of April.
