The film will mark Jis Joy’s first attempt at executing a commercial mass entertainer. The film is reported to be an investigative thriller. John will also be seen playing a prominent role in this mass thriller entertainer.
As Project Number 3 has wrapped up the production stage of the film and has headed towards post-production, the audiences are expecting to have its theatrical release soon.
