Things are happening fast as far as 'Biriyani' is concerned. Within days after he announced the project, director Venkat Prabhu has started the shooting. The film hit the floors after a brief pooja.

Karthi Sivakumar and Richa Gangopadhyay play key roles in this movie, which is touted as a romantic thriller loaded with humor. Music is by Yuvan Shankar Raja and this is his 100th film.

"Though there are plans to shoot the film in various locations, Chennai and Hyderabad will be the prime spots where Biriyani will be cooked," say sources close to the unit.

According to Venkat Prabhu, this 'Biriyani' is for both vegetarians and non-vegetarians. And Richa feels so happy to be part of the flick. She says she missed an opportunity to work with Venkat Prabhu in 'Mankatha' and now thrilled to join forces with him.
