Now that the shoot of 'Alex Pandian' is almost over, Karthi Sivakumar is gearing up to start his next, 'Biriyani' to be directed by Venkat Prabhu.

"Karthi is excited with the script narrated by Venkat Prabhu. It has loads of fun and energy, besides other interesting ingredients. On the whole, Biriyani will be a spicy flick," sources said.

It is said that the shoot would start soon and Venkat Prabhu would wrap it up at the earliest, so that Karthi would move on to 'All In Azhagu Raja' to be helmed by Rajesh M.

Interestingly, 'Biriyani' will be the 100th film of Yuvan Shankar Raja. "The composer is always known for striking it big in association with his cousin Venkat Prabhu. This time it is going to be doubly so."
