A 70-strong member team, drawn from police and forest officials, are on the look out for the film art director Vinod Mirdad, who was reported missing in Vellingiri Hills, on the outskirts, since February 27.
Vinod had gone to attend a temple festival on the hills on the Shivarathri day and reportedly spoke to his friend over mobile phone on that evening, police said.
However, from then onwards, there was no no message or calls from Vinod and based on the complaints from friends, police carried out search in the hills.
