Jeeva enters restaurant business

Jeeva is one actor who truly believes that variety is the spice of life. Be it taking on different characters in film or taking the initiative to turn producer, the man has never hesitated to experiment.

And now, Jeeva has taken his 'quest for spice' to another level by getting ready to set up a restaurant in the city. Says a thrilled Jeeva, "I'm a foodie and setting up a good restaurant has been on my agenda for a while. But, before taking on something big, my friend and I decided to begin by starting with a chaat place. So, the two of us took off to Delhi, Kolkata and Mumbai among other places to check out the street food there. We went around by foot and tasted everything from pani puri to kulfi. We will open our chaat centre sometime next month. We've even zeroed in on the location and work is on in full swing to refurnish the place and make it look swanky."

On the film front, he's awaiting the completion of 'Nanban'. "My portions are almost over in the film. I will start work with Gautham Menon from August 15. Also, Arya's production company and my production house, will come together to produce a film soon, to be directed by Rajesh. Arya and I will star in the lead," he informs.
