SonyLIV bags the digital rights of GV Prakash, Divyabharathi's romantic drama Bachelor

Bachelor, starring GV Prakash and debutant Divyabharathi in lead roles, is hitting the screens on December 3. The film, with a duration of close to three hours, has received A certificate after the censor formalities were completed. Directed by newbie Sathish Selvakumar, the movie is GV's first theatrical release after 100% Kadhal (streaming on Amazon Prime Video) which released more than two years ago.

The musician-actor, who earned praises from several quarters for his music in Suriya-starrer Soorarai Pottru, currently has 10 projects in his kitty. He has composed for a song in Bachelor as well.

It is heard that SonyLIV has bagged the digital rights of the romantic drama which revolves around the lives of a live-in couple whose relationship witnesses a roller-coaster ride. Produced by Sakthi Film Factory and Axess Film Factory, the project has San Lokesh as its editor and Theni Eswar as its cinematographer.      

GV's last outing, Vanakkam Da Mappilei directed by Rajesh, had a direct-to-OTT release on Sun NXT earlier this year. His long-pending film, Ayngaran, directed by Ravi Arasu, was rumoured to have a straight-to-OTT release on SonyLIV a few months ago. However, the makers are yet to make an announcement on its release.

Meanwhile, Jail, starring GV in the lead, directed by Vasanthabalan, is hitting the screens on December 9. The movie has Radhika Sarathkumar, Abarnathi, Pasanga Pandi, Nadan Ram and Ravi Mariya playing pivotal roles in it. 

The movie, which is based on the struggles of people living in a resettlement colony, has been in the making for more than three years. Recently, the actor-musician had expressed happiness over the movie finally seeing the light of the day.
