Santosh Sivan and Prithviraj's production company, August Cinema, launched their first film Urumi - a tri-lingual period film in Malayalam, Tamil and English.
Mammootty was the chief guest at the function held at Dream Hotel, Kochi, on July 16, which was the last day of Mithunam.
Mammookka lighted the traditional lamp in the presence of Prithvi's mother, Mallika Sukumaran.
Prithviraj, who is the fastest rising star in Malayalam cinema today, said : 'Through Urumi we are trying to uplift Malayalam cinema to the international level.'
Mammootty was all praise for 'his younger brother of Pokkiri Raja' and showered praise on him.
Director Renjith, who discovered Prithviraj, said: 'Prithviraj had an air ticket in his pocket when we started Nandanam, as he wanted to go back to Australia to continue his studies.'
Santosh Sivan said the film will be shot in Kerala and later in the forests of Malshej Ghat, Maharashtra, where Santosh and Prithviraj shot the climax of Raavanan.
The creme de la creme of Malayalam directors - Joshy, Renjith, Blessy, Siby Malayil, Kamal, Lenin Rajendran, Shaji Kailas, Lal, Viji Thampy, Renji Panikkar - producers Gokulam Gopalan, Liberty Basheer, actors Manian Pillai Raju, Indrajith, KPAC Lalitha and Kaviyoor Ponamma were present to wish Prithviraj and Santosh.
