After taking a U- turn from his villainous roles, and working well as the comedian in the mega hit 'Salt N Pepper', Baburaj will now turn the hero material. The new movie titled as 'Naughty Professor' will have him as the title character who is trying to stay young at heart.

The movie to be directed by Harinarayanan will have a big cast including Tini Tom, Innocent, Janardhanan, Rajeev Pillai, Lena, Malavika and master Vikas. Lekshmy Gopalaswamy and Kathal Sandhya are the heroines of the movie scripted by Baburaj himself. While Jassie Gift is in charge of songs and music, Bijith Bala does the editing. Sajeth Menon handles the camera. The movie to be produced by Annamala films will have its pooja on the 29th of this month at Ernakulam.

Baburaj will also don the hero role in the new movie 'Prabhuvinte Makkal' by Sanjeev Anthikkad which will also get into sets in a short while.
