Madhuram: June director’s next is a feel-good romantic flick
‘June’ director Ahammed Khabeer has started works on his next. Titled as ‘Madhuram’, the film has Joju George, Arjun Ashokan, Nikhila Vimal and Shruthi Ramachandran in the lead roles. Joju is also producing the film along with Sijo Vadakkan under the banner of Appu Pappu Pathu Production House. Shoot for the film commenced last Friday.
According to director Ahammed, ‘Madhuram’, as the title suggests, is a feel-good flick with mature romance in it. The film is scripted by newcomers Ashiq Aimar and Fahim Safar. Shruthi Ramachandran is paired with Joju in the film. Nikhila and Arjun Ashokan will be seen in equally important roles.
On the technical front, Jithin Stanislaus is the cinematographer and music is by Hesham Abdul Wahab. Mahesh Bhuvanend will be editing the film. Sound designer Dhanush Nayanar, sound mixer Vishnu Sujathan, makeup artist Ronex Xavier, costume designer Sameera Saneesh and art director Dileep Nath are also part of the technical crew.
After ‘June’, Ahammed Khabeer had announced another film with Joju titled as ‘Insha Allah’. But due to the pandemic, the makers have chose to do ‘Madhuram’ first, which is a comparatively small-scale project.
Ahammed is also scripting a film along with Libin Varghese for director Antony Sony of ‘C/O Saira Banu’ fame. Arjun Ashokan and Anna Ben were announced as the leads. That project again was supposed to begin earlier this year but it now seems to have been pushed.
