Fan or body double: Mohanlal's 'Pulimurugan' has new cast on board?

The photo of two foreigners (Yannick ben and Djibril Newik Chase) is going viral

A photo from the sets of Mohanlal's Pulimurugan is going viral on the social media. No, it's not Mohanlal in the photo this time, but two foreigners.

While the social media claims them to be fans from France, Onmanorama's spies raise their eyebrows to that and wonder if they are part of the action team of Pulimurugan!

Yannick Ben shared this photo in Facebook saying, "On set of Pulimurugan ‪#‎yannickben‬ ‪#‎theactionteam‬ ‪#‎pulimurugan‬" (sic.)

Yannick ben and Djibril Newik Chase are not quite familiar among the Malayalees, but the duo are popular stunt doubles, who have done many Bollywood films like Rees, Race 2 and Tamil projects including Maatraan and Puli.

According to the gospel of Facebook, before Pulimurugan, the duo were also be part of Vikram's next Iru Murugan. We rest our case here and leave the decision with you.

Touted to be an action-thriller, the makers had earlier roped in Peter Hein, the highest-paid stunt choreographer in Indian cinema. The fight master has choreographed the action scenes for films like Bahubali, Enthiran, and Sivaji.

Pulimurugan is undoubtedly the most anticipated movie of 2016. Scripted by Udayakrishna of Udaykrishna - Sibi K Thomas duo, the film is expected to hit the screens for Vishu in April.
