Alphonse Puthren’s next with Mohanlal to be announced on New Year’s Day!!

We are just two more days away from welcoming the new year and it’s the best time for new beginnings. As has the custom been in the past, filmmakers across the world will be announcing their new projects on the New Year’s Day. According to our sources within the Malayalam industry, some big projects are set to be announced here as well. Latest buzz is that Alphonse Puthren is teaming up with none other than superstar Mohanlal. Aashirvad Cinemas will be producing the movie and it is expected to be officially announced on January 1.

Ever since Alphonse made the sensational blockbuster ‘Premam’, cinephiles down South have been eagerly waiting for his next. It has been nearly four years since his last release and the director is yet to make one. Earlier this year, he had announced that his next would be in Tamil with Kalidas Jayaram in the lead. His film with Mohanlal is expected to commence only after that. Fans are highly excited to see what Alphonse has in store for Mohanlal. With the much raved college portions in ‘Premam’, the director had proved that he can helm mass flicks and it will be nothing short of massive if he can deliver one such film with Mohanlal.

The superstar is currently shooting for Priyadarshan’s Marakkar: Arabikadalinte Simham. He has already completed his portions for the Prithviraj directorial ‘Lucifer’, which is scheduled for March release. His Tamil film with director KV Anand, also starring Suriya, is currently on floors. ‘Big Brother’ with Siddique, ‘Ittymaani Made In China’ with debutant director duo Jibi-Joju and an untitled film with Arun Gopy are his other projects in the pipeline.
