Director C Prem Kumar, acclaimed for his work on '96', has revealed plans to direct scripts penned by other writers following the completion of his upcoming fifth film. Currently in post-production, this project stars actor Fahadh Faasil and is anticipated for release by the first quarter of 2027.

He emphasized that writing requires a distinct mindset, necessitating the elimination of the director's perspective to focus solely on narrative and emotion. Directing, conversely, involves uniting a team to realize a singular vision.
Kumar also noted his preference for focusing on one project at a time, a deliberate approach to his filmmaking process. While his latest film with Fahadh Faasil is nearing completion, he is also actively engaged with writers on new material for his future endeavors.
