Big B is undoubtedly one of the most stylish character Mollywood had ever seen and it was the directorial debut film of cinematographer Amal Neerad. It was released during the Vishu season of 2007 along with Mohanlal starrer Anwar Rasheed film Chotta Mumbai, Sathyan Anthikkad directorial Dileep film named Vinoda Yathra and Vinayan directorial children’s film Athisayan. While Chotta Mumbai and Vinoda Yathra ended up as Vishu winners of that season AThisayan ended up as disaster. Big B remained an Average grosser only as it not attracted that much audience at that particular time who expected a colourful complete entertainment and loud heroism of Mammootty.
On the contrary they got a dark-stylized and not so loud action drama from Mammootty and they discarded it. But like many film mini Screen gave it the deserved recognition as it become a trendsetter type film once it had come on mini screen. People loved the film and praised all its technical details and it had attained a cult classic status in the minds of Mammootty fans.
The planning of this special screening was came from Mammootty fans after what they saw what Mohanlal fans has been doing recently.
