Santhosh Pandit to star in Mammootty’s next
Mammootty’s next with Rajadhiraja fame Ajai Vasudev has started rolling today (April 17). The movie is scripted by Udhayakrishna who is basking in the historic success of Pulimurugan.
This untitled film is touted to be a mass thriller set in the backdrop of a government arts college. Mammootty is playing the role of a strict and short tempered professor. The movie has a huge star cast that includes actors like Unni Mukundan, Gokul Suresh Gopi, Mukesh, Salim Kumar, Maqbool Salmaan and many others.
Latest addition to the camp is Santhosh Pandit, who will be seen in a full fledged role in the movie. Santhosh Pandit is a popular social media celebrity who has also acted and directed some movies. Incidentally, this is the first time he is starring in a movie that is not directed by him. Details about his character in this Mammootty starrer are not yet known.
Director Ajai Vasudev had earlier revealed that Mammootty’s role in the movie is a larger than life character, just like how it is usually in mass entertainers. Kasaba fame Varalaxmi Sarathkumar is playing the female lead in the movie which also stars Mahima Nambiar and Poonam Bajwa in pivotal roles.
Shaji Kumar, who handled the camera in Pulimurugan is the DOP. Anal Arasu will be choreographing the high octane action blocks. Royal Cinemas owned by CH Muhammed is funding this movie.
