Nee-na fame Deepti Sati to play the female lead in Mammootty’s nextt

We had earlier reported that Mammootty’s next after Puthan Panam will be helmed by 7th day fame Shyam Dhar. The director had earlier announced the news through his official Facebook account.

The movie will be a complete family entertainer entirely different from the director’s debut movie 7th day, a dark thriller. Nee-na fame Deepti Sati and Asha Sarath has been roped in to play the female leads in this movie.

Mammootty plays a native of Idukki, who comes to Ernakulam as a teacher trainer in this movie. Shyam Dhar said, “Mammootty’s character in the movie considers every teacher a child and they love his lectures as he connects and explains everything with an anecdote. On the whole, he is a fabulous story teller and the film will reveal the reasons for the same.”

Asha Sharath plays a teacher in the movie while Deepti Sati will be playing a totally different role from her previous movie.

Story and screenplay for this movie will be written by debutant Ratheesh Ravi. B Rakesh will be producing this movie. He is also funding Nivin Pauly’s upcoming political drama Sakhavu directed by Sidhartha Siva.

The Mammootty starrer also features Innocent, Dileesh Pothen, Hareesh Kanaran and Sohan Seenulal in pivotal roles. The movie will go on floors on February 1. Ernakulam and Idukki are the major locations.
