On being part of the project, Kajal Aggarwal said in a statement: “As an actor, I am constantly looking for roles that challenge me and take me out of my comfort zone. LIVE TELECAST did just that! My character Jenny, a director by profession, is a strong and independent woman whose single-minded goal is to make a successful TV show and, in that quest, she finds herself locked in a huge house with no way out. Audiences who love horror stories and otherwise are going to love this show!”
Venkat Prabhu is known for his films such as Saroja, Mankatha and Masss. He’s currently filming upcoming Tamil political drama Manaadu with Simbu.
