Directed by Bharat Bala and produced by Walt Disney, the 19th Step will soon go on floors. Tadanobu Asano, the Japanese actor who plays a significant role in the film, is in Chennai to be a part of the photo shoot. He will be joined by Asin, who is expected to fly down from Mumbai and the film’s shooting will soon start after Kamal Haasan completes Unnai Pol Oruvan.

The Japanese actor plays a warrior who comes to India to learn the ancient martial art form Kalaripayattu from Asin. Asin essays the role of an Indian princess. The story is written by M.T. Vasudevan Nair, who aims to trace the origin of the ancient martial art form in India.

Asano will leave for Kerala by end of this week, to explore further and also finalize the costumes. The photo shoot will be without Kamal Haasan for now. But, he will soon join the rest of the cast in September as he plays the role of a martial arts guru.

Music for the film is scored by none other than A.R. Rahman!
