Mohanlal is always a man of surprises or a source of wonder for Malayalees. For Malayalees if we ask what is the 8th wonder in this world for them majority will answer that Mohanlal is that wonder for them and he indeed a wonder with his acting skills, the influence and impact he had on people here and his down to earth behavior that which make this wonder our most loved brother. Mohanlal had took a decision this year that he will only act in those films who comes to him with fully completed scripts and he will not encourage the method finishing up script while the shooting was going on or at the last minute of the scheduled time of the beginning of filming.
He is going by his decision with full clarity and as the result he already surprised us with the starting of some projects which was not in his schedule this year. First one was Loham directed by Ranjith which is up for an Onam release. He committed the film rather surprisingly. Then another one was Kanal which is in its filming stage now and will come to you all in Deepavali season. It had earlier planned to start this year last. But the script was got completed rather quickly and he liked it too. So he pushed some unfinished scripts further forward and started Kanal in last May. Mohanlal pushed Puli Murugan forward because of the unfinished pre production works of that film.
Now we have no clue whatsoever which film he is going to start next after Kanal. We had got some interesting projects which may come as a surprise in the next few months of Mohanlal’s schedule. One is a project which will be directing by Madhupal which was in the pipeline for almost a year. There is a project with B Unnikrishnan which is announced some days back and reports says that a Major Ravi directorial family film also can make come to his schedule this year.
His friend and master director Priyadarshan also all set to come up with a project and the script of which is almost in its final stages. Projects of people like Lal, Lal Jose, I V sasi, Jeethu Joseph also there for him which may start anytime as per reports. There is also news about his tamil film along with Kamal Haasan as well.
