Clash of the Big Ms is one thing that the Malayali audience eagerly look forward to every year. Last time they locked horns were during the Vishu season when The Great Father and 1971 Beyond Borders hit screens within a week’s gap. While the former struck gold in the box office, the Mohanlal starrer ended up as a box office failure.

The latest we hear is that Mohanlal and Mammootty will be clashing again this year during the Onam season. Mohanlal is teaming up with Lal Jose after years of speculation while Mammootty is working on Rajadhiraja fame Ajai Vasudev’s mass entertainer.

Another interesting bit is that both of them will be seen as faculty members in the upcoming movies. While Mohanlal will essaying the role of a college principal Mammootty will be seen as a strict and tough college professor in the Ajai Vasudev directorial.

Expectations are high on both the projects. Mohanlal- Lal Jose movie is scripted by Benny P Nayarambalam and funded by the superstar’s own production house Aashirvad Cinemas.

Mammootty’s movie is scripted by Udhayakrishna, who is fresh from the historic success of Pulimurugan. The movie has an ensemble star cast that includes Unni Mukundan, Gokul Suresh, Varalaxmi Sarathkumar, Poonam Bajwa, Mahima Nambiar and many others. Royal Cinemas, a new production house owned by CH Muhammed will be funding this movie.
