The superstar also revealed how he decided to make his directorial debut with Barroz: Nidhi Kaakkum Bhootham. Apparently, the idea emerged when he and filmmaker TK Rajeev Kumar had decided to make a 3D show and had met Jijo Punnoose, the director of the first Indian fantasy 3D film, My Dear Kuttichathan.
