Chennai, Aug 29 Young Tamil actor Gautham Ram Karthik, who was in hospital for 10 days, has now disclosed that he has recovered from Dengue.
Taking to his Instagram page to make the announcement, Gautham Ram Karthik said, "From a headache to a fever to dengue to being hospitalized for 10 days....safe to say, I have survived with flying colors! It's times like these that you realise health takes priority over EVERYTHING else! Stay healthy. Stay safe."
On the work front, Gautham Ram Karthik is currently working on director Sooriyaprathap's sci-fi crime thriller, ‘ROOT – Running Out of Time’. It may be recalled that only recently, the unit of the film had wrapped up its first shooting schedule.
The film, which will feature Gautham Ram Karthik in a gripping role, will also mark the Tamil cinema debut of Bollywood star Aparshakti Khurana, celebrated for his standout performances in Hindi blockbusters.
Sources close to the unit say that several key sequences between the leads were shot during the schedule that was completed earlier this month.
Actress Bhavya Trikha plays the female lead in the film, which will also have veteran actor Y Gee Mahendran in a pivotal role.
Produced by Dhanishtan Fernando, Rajarajan Gananasambandam, Sanjai Shankar, and Shaik Mujeeb under the Verus Productions banner, the film, sources claim, will be an edge-of-the-seat thriller.
Director Sooriyaprathap S had expressed his excitement on the successful completion of the first schedule. He had said, “Completing the first schedule has been an invigorating experience for the entire team. The energy between Gautham and Aparshakti on screen is electric, and the Chennai backdrop has added a distinct texture to the film. We can’t wait to continue the journey in the upcoming schedules.”
For the unaware, director Sooriyaprathap S is best known for his creative vision in Naalaiya Iyakkunar – Season 1 and his contribution as an associate director in 'Kochadaiiyaan', which featured Superstar Rajinikanth in the lead.
Director Sooriyaprathap S, while speaking about the film on an earlier occasion, had said, “This film has been a passion project right from the scripting stage. The idea behind ROOT is to present a gripping crime thriller on a sci-fi backdrop, but with grounded, emotionally resonant characters."
Talking about Gautham Ram Karthik, the director had said, "Gautham brings a powerful presence and depth to the role of a police officer. His commitment to the craft and fearless approach to challenging roles makes him the perfect anchor for this story."
Cinematography for the film is by Arjun Raja while music will be by Vithushanan, and action choreography by Miracle Michael.
