Jayaprakash, arguably the most sought after character artiste in Kollywood these days, has found himself a place in the ‘Mankatha’ game. Yes, he is doing a crucial role in this 50th film of Ajith, directed by Venkat Prabhu.

The producer of many hit movies, Jayaprakash will play Trisha’s father in ‘Mankatha’. In the meantime, he is happy with the feedback he received for his performance in Mysskin’s ‘Yudham Sei’.

In the film produced by AGS Entertainment, he brilliantly played an alcoholic pathologist alongside Cheran. Interestingly, it was Cheran who introduced Jayaprakash as an actor in ‘Mayakannadi’.

For those who want to know more about the origin of the rapport between Cheran and Jayaprakash, it dates back to the late 1990s, when the latter produced ‘Porkaalam’, a movie directed by the former.
