Actor Vetri of '8 Thottakkal' and 'Jiivi' fame is all set to play the lead role in  'Bumper', a Tamil film based on the popular Kerala lottery system.

The film to be produced by S Thiagaraja, under Vetha Pictures banner, is to be directed by M Selvakumar, who had earlier worked with filmmakers like 'Meera Kathiravan' and 'Komban' fame Muthaiah. The music will be composed by Govind Vasantha, while lyrics are by Karthik Netha.

Director Selvakumar said "Kerala bumper lottery forms the backdrop of this film. Vetri is playing the protagonist, while actor Hareesh Peradi is playing a very important character."
